Given the fonts that were "missing" were standard, they ought to be
installed already.

But this is incomplete, since the output of "dpkg -l" is COLUMN
dependant, hence:

% COLUMNS=200 dpkg -l \*font\* | less

... but you also, with that command will list not all installed
packages, hence:

% COLUMNS=200 dpkg -l \*font\* | awk '/^ii/ { print }' | less
