Package: xfig
Version: 1:3.2.5-alpha5-8
Followup-For: Bug #384346

On Sept 24, Roland Rosenfeld stated that he could not reproduce
this bug and therefore cannot find a solution for it.  I am
experiencing a similar bug.  If I start xfig and attempt to place
a text object in a drawing, xfig generates an error message
saying 

  Can't find -*-times-medium-r-normal--13-*-*-*-*-*-ISO8859-*, using 6x13

All fonts in existing drawings are replaced with 6x13 as well.
This is on a fresh system which I've just installed with testing.

This problem is related to the fact that
-*-times-medium-r-normal--13-*-*-*-*-*-ISO8859-* is not available
on this system.  This seems therefore to be due to a missing
dependency for the xfig package.  I am far from an expert in X11
fonts - can you suggest how to discover what package provides the
that font?
