You're fully right, that's a problem with update-fonts-scale,
update-fonts-dir and update-fonts-alias from the xfonts-utils
package.
In postinst of gsfonts-x11 I call (based on debhelper):
update-fonts-scale Type1;update-fonts-dir --x11r7-layout Type1;\
update-fonts-alias Type1
These commands run over the following paths:
X11R6DIR=/usr/lib/X11/fonts/$1
X11R7DIR=/usr/share/fonts/X11/$1
and if one of it doesn't exist, they print the warning:
for DIR in "$X11R7DIR" "$X11R6DIR"; do
[ -n "$DIR" ] || continue
if [ -d "$DIR" ]; then
VALIDDEST=yes
else
warn "$DIR does not exist or is not a directory"
fi
done
On a fresh installed etch system there should no
/usr/lib/X11/fonts/{Type1,100dpi,75dpi,misc} exist, so we will always
run into these warnings. I think that the warning regarding to
X11R6DIR should be suppressed in the update-fonts-* commands.
See also bug reports #389085 and #400449, which mention the same
problem.
Tschoeeee
