Ok, now I'm really confused:

I ran this to extract out the .deb:

$ dpkg-deb -x /var/cache/apt/archives/xfonts-base_4.3.0-5_all.deb xbase
$ grep ^fixed xbase/etc/X11/fonts/misc/xfonts-base.alias 
fixed        -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-120-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1

Ok so that's the correct encoding.  Then I did this:

# apt-get remove xfonts-base
# rm -f /etc/X11/fonts/misc/xfonts-base.alias
# dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/xfonts-base_4.3.0-5_all.deb
# cat /etc/X11/fonts/misc/xfonts-base.alias     
cat: /etc/X11/fonts/misc/xfonts-base.alias: No such file or directory

So, why didn't that file get installed with dpkg -i ?

And how did I get a xfonts-base.alias with 8859-15 encodings.
