Title:
  xorg depends on fonts, package does not.

Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg

  The package doesn't depend on/pull in the fonts. But starting an
  Xserver then results in:

  Fatal server error:
  No valid FontPath could be found.

  after:

  apt-get install xfonts-base

  the Xserver starts.

  Ooops. This IS on the older 8.10 version of ubuntu, so maybe this has been 
fixed in jaunty. kostunrix:~# apt-cache policy xserver-xorg
