That is a manual dependency in dpdk-doc, it might have been outdated by
changes in the archive but why haven't we seen it in PPA and PPA based
dep8 tests at all.

  95 Package: dpdk-doc                                                          
      
  96 Section: doc                                                               
      
  97 Architecture: all                                                          
      
  98 Multi-Arch: foreign

 101 Depends: fonts-font-awesome,                                               
      
 102          fonts-lato,                                                       
      
 103          fonts-roboto-slab,

Ah the reason it shows up is because:
- dpdk-doc is in main
- we changed it to depend on fonts instead of shipping them  [1]
- fonts-roboto-slab was in main in the past D/E so we considered it no problem
- but in Focal it is only in universe
- up to Eoan sphinx-rtd-theme-common (main) held fonts-roboto in main

We could re-promote fonts-roboto as it had it seems to have had its MIR
approval in the past.

But actually dpdk-doc is a leave package and I don't want people to
believe too much in the full-support of the examples in there (they
really are just examples, and sometimes out of date). I think the better
choice is an exclude from the auto-addition of -doc packages.
