Andrej, you should have also reverted fonts-roboto to depend on
fonts-roboto-hinted again when you fixed #922457. In case of
retroarch-assets which depends on fonts-roboto | fonts-roboto-hinted
this will pull in fonts-roboto-unhinted now when fonts-roboto-hinted is
not installed.

I'm going to fix this issue now in retroarch-assets by only depending on
fonts-roboto-hinted but such changes should not be made without proper
testing before a full freeze. :/
