I'm somehow "tracking" this issue, but the real fix is in the
fontmatrix package.

I actually wonder whether it is really a good idea to *depend* on
packages. We should maybe only *recommend* this in order to avoid
o-f-d-t to be in danger as soon as one of the packages in the toolkit
is RC-buggy in the distribution.

So, the fix might be "s/Depends:/Recommends:"
