Just found out what is going on (immediately after posting this bug --
figures).

There's code in the packaging...whatever it is...that replaces the font
files with symlinks to system fonts:
https://git.launchpad.net/~libretro/libretro/+git/retroarch-assets-
debian/tree/links.in.

I suppose that closes this "bug". Still, I'm of the opinion that
requiring a 70MB dependency just to get a 1.6MB font is
counterproductive, but where do I post a bug report about this?? As
should be obvious by now, I'm finding it difficult to figure out how
everything on Launchpad connects.
