Control: reassign -1 desktop-file-utils
Control: fixed -1 desktop-file-utils/0.24-1

Bug #910820 notes that update-desktop-database complained about "font/ttf" 
in gnome-font-viewer.desktop.  The "font" top-level media type was 
registered by RFC 8081 in February 2017, so in October 2018 the failure to 
accept it was a bug in desktop-file-utils.  Anyway, it was fixed by 
version 0.24 of desktop-file-utils in 2019, which added support for the 
"font" top-level media type.
