Clarification: the package correctly generates /etc/X11/fonts/misc/xfonts-base.alias when first installed, so a workaround is to uninstall the package and then install it afresh. It would be useful if the reinstall script could check if /etc/X11/fonts/misc/xfonts-base.alias exists and create it if it doesn't.
