Package: libpango1.0-common
Version: 1.2.5-2.1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I just compiled and installed a fresh gtk2, with framebuffer-support,
on a system which does not have X installed. Much to my surprise, the
first application we built and ran on that system segfaulted at
startup.

After investigating, we found that the problem was that there were no
font packages installed. I had expected that installing pango would
take care of that, but apparently not.

Please adjust your dependencies to ensure at least one font package is
installed when libpango1.0-common is.
