Verbatim copy of said file:
| conf.d/README
| 
| Each file in this directory is a fontconfig configuration file.  Fontconfig
| scans this directory, loading all files of the form [0-9][0-9]*.conf.
| These files are normally installed in ../conf.avail and then symlinked here,
| allowing them to be easily installed and then enabled/disabled by adjusting
| the symlinks.
| 
| The files are loaded in numeric order, the structure of the configuration
| has led to the following conventions in usage:
| 
|  Files begining with:   Contain:
| 
|  00 through 09          Font directories
|  10 through 19          system rendering defaults (AA, etc)
|  20 through 29          font rendering options
|  30 through 39          family substitution
|  40 through 49          generic identification, map family->generic
|  50 through 59          alternate config file loading
|  60 through 69          generic aliases, map generic->family
|  70 through 79          select font (adjust which fonts are available)
|  80 through 89          match target="scan" (modify scanned patterns)
|  90 through 99          font synthesis

Let's assume you were talking about fontconfig's README.Debian instead;
it has:
| If you wish to enable bitmapped fonts manually, either reconfigure this
| package (with dpkg-reconfigure fontconfig-config), or remove the
| symbolic link /etc/fonts/conf.d/30-debconf-no-bitmaps.conf

(A) The filename is wrong.
(B) Removing the symlink is documented and not honored.
