Public bug reported:

The libreoffice-common package currently recommends xfonts-mathml, which
was removed from Debian in 2014 with the rationale that it is superseded
by fonts-stix (and that it has a license problem).  Please replace it
with fonts-stix.

Since xfonts-mathml is only a Recommends: rather than Depends:, I'm
going to go ahead and remove xfonts-mathml from wily.  If for some
reason fonts-stix is not a suitable replacement and xfonts-mathml is
still needed, please feel free to reupload it to the archive and close
this bug.
