Package: emacs23-common
Version: 23.1+1-4
Severity: normal

The emacs (emacs23) man page says:

  -fn font, --font font
       Set the Emacs window's font to that specified  by  font.
       You   will   find   the   various   X   fonts   in   the
       /usr/lib/X11/fonts directory.  Note that Emacs will only
       accept fixed width fonts.  Under the X11 Release 4 font-
       naming conventions, any font with the value "m"  or  "c"
       in  the eleventh field of the font name is a fixed width
       font.  Furthermore, fonts whose name  are  of  the  form
       widthxheight  are  generally fixed width, as is the font
       fixed.  See xlsfonts(1) for more information.

At least the path /usr/lib/X11/fonts is wrong (according to strace).
