This (due to changes made in the Debian modular X transition) means that
anything that calls dh_installxfonts will fail to build in edgy until we
bring xfonts-utils up to date. However, this requires getting past the
split of xfonts-core into xfonts-{base,75dpi,100dpi,scalable,utils}
source packages, which in turn requires a manual bootstrap on the
buildds of xfonts-encoding <-> xfonts-utils (due to a
Build-Depends/Depends loop), and before any of that happens Fabio wants
to update imake.

In other words, it may be a little while before all this works properly.
Consider edgy's X infrastructure to be under construction for a while!

Cheers,
