Raster fonts appear in Edgy

After installing msttcorefonts, a lot less raster fonts appear, but they still do - For example, the comment entry here (on launchpad), and on this site: http://davesource.com/Bugs/Motorola-RAZR-V3i.html

This can be fixed by linking /etc/fonts/conf.d/no-bitmaps.conf to /etc/fonts/conf.d/30-debconf-no-bitmaps.conf (or something similar) - this link existed on my dapper system, but for some reason not on edgy - It seems this bug affects not only me too, judging by the screenshots on this page, http://www.ubuntu.com/testing/knot2 , it seems I'm not the only one affected... This doesn't seem to affect dapper->edgy upgrades, but only fresh edgy installs.

in debian/fontconfig-config.config we have :
if [ ! -f "/etc/fonts/fonts.conf" ]; then
  # This is a first install
  enable_bitmaps="false"
else
  # We are upgrading. No file for bitmaps means:
  enable_bitmaps="true"
fi

I suspect that we have to remove the else loop like this :
if [ ! -f "/etc/fonts/fonts.conf" ]; then
  # This is a first install
  enable_bitmaps="false"
fi

Ian Jackson have done works on this bug. It will be available after knot3.

A recent update removed my no-bitmaps symlink and added a yes-bitmaps symlink in its place... Just adding comment in case this wasn't meant to happen.

From iwj:
I have done a lot of experiments and I have concluded:
1. purging fontconfig-config and reinstalling it restores everything to normality as expected (dpkg --purge --force-depends; dpkg -i);
2. It is possible to fix it with echo PURGE | debconf-communicate fontconfig-config and then dpkg-reconfigure --default-priority fontconfig-config

So i will do a fresh install tomorrow and close the bug if 30-debconf-no... is well created.

I just installed edgy knot-3. I had the problem with the bad fonts in Firefox, so I stumbled upon this bug.

I just tried Patrice/iwj's first fix, and it works. Fonts in Firefox now look just the same as in dapper. However, it only worked with the fix, NOT with the original fresh install.

Doing fresh installation with iso that have fontconfig >= 2.3.2-7ubuntu2 works now.
30-debconf-no-bitmaps.conf is created.
Thanks to Ian Jackson :)
