Comment 1 for bug 618690

The actual explanation for dropping Ubuntu delta can be fount on:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/latex-xft-fonts/+bug/618547
Trying to summarize: the standalone latex-xft-fonts, which is now in universe, should be removed (as was done in Debian), and let it be built from lyx (as is done in Debian)

This sync will also fix LP #588969

Rob: please check if the new upstream fixes any other bugs in: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lyx/
