4. Type 1 fonts must be placed in `/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/'.
If font metric files are available, they must be placed here as
well.
so we work according to policy.
/usr/lib/X11 is a symlink to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 so we are ok here.
Probably Ubuntu didn't something wrong with this stuff.
I say we have no problem and we should not worry about it until Debian's
policy changes.
