XFree86 4.1.0 debs for potato
Thanks very much for your work on the 4.1.0 packages Branden! I have built potato versions of Branden's 4.1.0 debs. See http://people.debian.org/~cpbotha/xf410_potato/READ.THIS for more information on how to get them on your system. If you would like to build these yourselves, see my HOWTO at: http://cpbotha.net/building_xfree86_4.1.0_debs_on_potato.HOWTO -- charl p. botha | computer graphics and cad/cam http://cpbotha.net/ | http://www.cg.its.tudelft.nl/
latin2 in xfonts-* packages?
I've noticed the xfonts-{misc,75dpi,100dpi} packages provides latin2
fonts. They are the same fonts as in my xfonts-biznet-* packages. Should I
remove my packages as outdated and replaced by main xfree86 packages?
These latin2 fonts are placed in own directory. I'm afraid they should be
placed in /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/{base,75dpi,100dpi} like other fonts
listed in XF86Config. Should I report the bug?

If the fonts in xfonts-{misc,75dpi,100dpi} are suitable for Latin-2 usage,
yes.
