 Hi Stefano, thanks for your comments.

Thank you for following up!

 I'm not sure if I understand your advice correctly but
 how about the followings:

Yes, you understood my advice correctly. Some more comments are inlined
below.

 (ttf-mathematica4.1)
 Description: Installer of Mathematica TrueType Fonts for MathML
  To display documents containing MathML equations properly with
  MathML-enabled browsers, you will need TeX's Computer Modern fonts, 
  Type1 'Symbol' font, Mathematica 4.1 fonts and some Other fonts 
  (MathType's fonts) installed on your computer.

It is not clear what you mean with documents. I would go for something
like to display web pages containing  Remember that the long
descriptions is targeted at the sysadm, which can now nothing about
MathML, and will need to satisfy user requests such as I can't see
mathematics on the web.

  You will need latex-xft-fonts(TeX's Computer Modern fonts) and
  xfonts-mathml(Type1 'Symbol' font) also to view MathML properly.

Better: you will also need to install the packages: latex-xft-fonts
(Tex's Computer Modern fonts) and xfonts-mathml (Type1 'Symbol' font) to
view MathML properly. This version makes clear that you are referring
to Debian package names.

 (xfonts-mathml)

  .
  This package provides Type1 Symbol font which is modified from 
  s05l.pfb of gsfonts with FontForge. 
  .
  You will need latex-xft-fonts(TeX's Computer Modern fonts) and
  ttf-mathematica4.1(Mathematica 4.1 fonts) also to view MathML
  properly.

Ah OK, then my initial understanding of this package was wrong :), it is
still for viewing MathML in web browsers.

Same comments as above then for the first and third paragraphs.

Cheers.

Yes, both are the same kind of packages.  I now understand
that my initial Descriptions would have caused severe confusion 
in Debian ;-)

 Same comments as above then for the first and third paragraphs.

Thanks again for your comments and I'll fix them as
you advised.

  MathML needs Math1, Math2, Math4 fonts of Mathematica4.1 to display
  mathematical contents and this package provides them.

Neither of these 2 ITP in their long descriptions state the intended
usage of the fonts. I presume that the former is for seeing MathML
inside X.org while the latter is to see MathML inside Mozilla-like
browsers, but this need to be expressed clearly in the long
descriptions.

Can you please check that my guesses are correct and updates the
descriptions accordingly?

TIA, Cheers.

  Description : Type1 Symbol fonts for MathML

 The fonts are generated from s05l.pfb of gsfonts with FontForge.
 You will need latex-xft-fonts also.

With this and latex-xft-fonts and ttf-mathematica4.1, MathML pages
will be displayed correctly.
