Package: eeepc-acpi-scripts
Version: 1.0.3
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

The package 'msttcorefonts', which several of your binary packages
Suggest, has changed name. It is now called ttf-mscorefonts-installer,
to be in line with other TrueType font packages in Debian. Also,
recently the ttf-liberation package has entered Debian. This is a
package containing free variants of the Arial, Courier and Times New
Roman fonts. This is obviously a better alternative to users since it's
in main and doesn't require a separate download.

Please do one of the following:

1) If your package only needs Arial, Courier or Times New Roman, change
   the Suggests to:
   ttf-liberation | ttf-mscorefonts-installer

2) If the suggests is specifically about non-{Arial,Courier,Times)
   fonts, change it to:
   ttf-mscorefonts-installer

thanks,

Thijs
(msttcorefonts maintainer)
