Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: msttcorefonts

output of:
  dpkg -L msttcorefonts
is not listing these files:
  ls /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/

georgiai.ttf                 webdings.ttf
georgia.ttf                  Webdings.ttf
which it should list.

Also the reverse is also not working. output of:
  dpkg -S /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/arial.ttf 
and:
  dpkg -S /usr/share/fonts/truetype/msttcorefonts/Arial.ttf
results in an error, which it should not.

I know the package is containing an archive that is extracted to create
these files. Nevertheless, the package manager can/should be tricked
when installing the package to be aware that these files belong to the
package in both directions of look up. From file to package and from
package to file.

The same problem exists for xfonts-mathml package.
