re: Bug#168778: marked as done (openoffice.org: Ugly trutype fonts in PPC build)
Is this really fixed for anyone? On my debian ppc sid box I am still having
problems. In my case, unless I comment the line...
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType"
in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 leaving only...
FontPath "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType"
I get no menus when openoffice starts up. I assume that the path fix in
this new openoffice.org-debian-files_1.0.1-6+4_all.deb doesn't require me
to trash my .openoffice directory in all the user accounts for the fix
to be functional, right? I have msttcorefonts installed with the following

Anyone else seeing this problem? Once I comment
FontPath "/usr/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType"
in /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, openoffice runs fine and I can see the text in
all the menus. So it seems this fix doesn't totally suffice.
