Please unblock package pokerth
[ Reason ]
pokerth depends on gsfonts-x11 which has been replaced by
fonts-urw-base35. Some fonts names changed and symlinks pointing to
the old fonts no longer worked as expected. (#1020237) However after
looking into this issue, I discovered that those fonts are no longer
required. They were intended as a fallback solution but upstream
removed them years ago. There is also still DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf which
should suffice as well. Since it made no difference, I simply removed the
dependency on gsfonts-x11.
[ Impact ]
pokerth in testing would be shipped with dangling symlinks.
[ Tests ]
The game looks identical with or without those fonts.
[ Risks ]
None, since gsfonts-x11 is just obsolete
[ Checklist ]
