Yes, this package is utterly broken. (I think it is because of a version incompatibility with libgraphite3.) Please, can someone either fix it, or remove it. It's dangerous as it is: if someone installs it and then restarts the system, Gnome will not even start.

WORKAROUND: If you need Graphite rendering, you should use the SIL repository: http://packages.sil.org/ubuntu/
It has an updated version of pango-graphite, and it works beautifully.
