*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 63408 ***
IMHO the bug is still here. I've changed mu xorg.conf file to use the
right directory (/usr/share/fonts/X11/). Now, refreshing xorg.conf file
using dpkg-reconfigure, I should have a working file
#### start console log ####
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

So, currently:
1. font files are installed in /usr/share/fonts/X11/* directories
2. the dpkg-reconfigure command (it should recreate xorg.conf file as in a
fresh install, removing all manual customizations, isn't it?) sets FontPaths to
non working directories (no font files in /usr/share/X11/fonts/*)
