Sounds like you made local modifications to the conffile
/etc/X11/fonts/misc/xfonts-base.alias, and dpkg was preserving them.

You probably obliterated the evidence trail by overwriting the file with
a copy extracted from the package, but "dpkg --install --force-confnew"
would have done the same thing.
