Hi. I confess that I'm not sure exactly that this bug report is correct, but I think something is wrong and I thought I ought to report it. I recently did some rework on one of my own packages, userv, and I found that dblatex -b xetex doesn't work unless fonts-dejavu is installed as well as dblatex and texlive-xetex: https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=userv&arch=amd64&ver=1.2.1%7Ebeta3&stamp=1640991844&raw=0 I'm not sure where this dependency ought to be, if indeed it ought to be anywhere at al. For now I am adding an explicit dependency on "fonts-dejavu" to my Build-Depends. Thanks, Ian.
