Thomas this spec doesn't have any -devel -libs etc. subpackages, it doesn't
even deal with the fonts really, it just removes them and adds a requires:
root-ttf.

For libAfterImage the version in f10 and in root are both 1.18 so I don't see
an issue there.

For the font side now, just removing the ms fonts last time I checked doesn't
stop the X interface from working (freetype is used which deals with it) BUT
the postscript output was broken since it needs the MS .ttf files. Looking at
the code (graf2d/graf/src/TTF.cxx) it looks like the code also looks for free
versions for some of the fonts (FreeMono.ttf, ...) so removing the MS ones and
replacing them with the free ones should work. The liberation fonts probably
provide a better solution so patching the code to add them is a also good idea.
Not sure where we can get symbol.ttf though. I'll try to find someone from the
Fonts SIG to have a look at this.
