Yes, It seems correct.

I'm very sorry for this bug report.
Because I can't reproduce this bug in current squeeze.
So I'll close this bug report.
BTW,

I don't know detail well, but It cause some problem, may be. The
dvips(dvipsk-ja) see /etc/texmf.cnf. In this file, the settings are
written individually depending on the type of font, such as TrueType,
OpenType,...etc.
Again, I can't reproduce this bug in current squeeze, so there are no
problem. But if a problem occurs in future, it will be because the
placement of ttf-japanese-{mincho,gothic}.ttf is strange(some virtual
fonts are under /usr/share/opentype, not truetype)
Sincerely yours,
