Control: reopen -1 !
Control: severity -1 serious

I think is wrong for fonts-noto to provide a binary package
containing only a synthesized variation for a minor subset of its
fonts.

I find it wrong to go ahead and introduce such new package without
discussion.

I think the right cause of action now is to revert that change and drop
the newly introduced binary package fonts-noto-web.

Raising severity to avoid the package change to reach testing.

 - Jonas
