Hi, Yamane-san,

# I know that this bug is not ttf-takao specific, but as I first find this bug
# for ttf-takao, I file this bug to ttf-takao for now.

Today I find that ttf-takao (and also otf-ipafont) provides
ttf-japanese-mincho.ttf as /usr/share/fonts/opentype/ttf-japanese-mincho.otf,
which contradicts the proposal on http://wiki.debian.org/Fonts/JapanesefontpkgProposal,
which mentions that the provided font file is
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-japanese-mincho.ttf.

This causes printing error from emacs (M-x pr-ps-buffer-using-ghostscript)
with following output:

/usr/bin/gs ("-sDEVICE=uniprint" "-r300" "-q -dNOPAUSE -I/usr/share/ghostscript/5.10" "-sOutputFile=\"/tmp/prspool-3143ECX.ps3143RMd\"" "/tmp/prspool-3143ECX.ps" "-c quit")
Can't find the font file /usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-japanese-mincho.ttf
GPL Ghostscript 8.71: Unrecoverable error, exit code 1
Exit status: 1

/usr/bin/lp ("-dPDF" "/tmp/prspool-3143ECX.ps3143RMd")
/usr/bin/lp: No file!?!
Exit status: 1

If we stick to the w-d-o proposal, the link under /usr/share/fonts/truetype should also be created.

Best regards,
