Comment 2 for bug 70190

I have the same issue, but with xfonts-base 1.0.0-4

stan@ubuntu:~$ dpkg -l | grep xfonts-base
ii xfonts-base 1.0.0-4 standard fonts for X

stan@ubuntu:~$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xfonts-base
warning: /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc does not exist or is not a directory
warning: /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc does not exist or is not a directory

stan@ubuntu:~$ sudo mkdir /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc

drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 2007-07-09 15:29 ..

when I try to configure xfonts-base I get the 2 warnings. If I check that folder indeed it doesn't exist. If I manually create it, I still get one warning and even more the misc folder is deleted.

Any suggestions?

Thank you,
