hmm, yes, i think so...

but, there is a problem for current koha installs, that the font path in
koha-conf.xml will be incorrect


 <ttf>
    <font type="TR"
>/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSerif.ttf</font>
...
 </ttf>


when the unrequired ttf-dejavu package's symlinks are removed (eg: apt
autoremove) the paths will need to be manually corrected

keeping the ttf-dejavu reference in debian/control would postpone this problem
until the system is upgraded to deb11/bullseye (which is probably a good
thing?)


any thoughts?
