Wrong fonts in OO-2.0.3-2, resend
Well, thank you, thank you very much from the deep of my heart for the
quick, profund and extensive indulgence into this problem and the answers,
tips and hints you gave me......... NOT!!
After quite a lot of further hours (and innumerable curses) spent on this
matter, I at last discovered the culprit and found the solution.
It's a bloody shame, that I could pinpoint the source of the sh*t
completely on your side and that, for you as estimated maintainers with
surely quite a lot more of programming-knowledge as I have, this was not
imminent quickly. I at least assume, that you read my message and not
dumped it immediately as an annoyance!
The culprit is "openoffice.org-kde", the version you put into testing along
with the rest of OO. After deinstalling this, everything was fine. And NO,
don't use "you didn't fulfill the necessary dependencies" to wash your
hands in, aptitude 0.4.2 had nothing whatsoever to complain about!
I repeat my original message again, so you can, if you like to at least,
see what I meant.

Dear maintainers,
I've got a problem with that release and no one till now could help me in
lists.debian.org. You can see my extensive description and what I tried in
the forum "users" on page 6, originator bdoedel.
In short. I'm using testing/etch on an i386-PC and updating almost every 2
days via aptitude the, in my environment, relevant packages.
Dependency-problems therefore should not arise.
After I updated OO to am. release I, as normal user, get whenever I start
OO everything originating from OO itself in Greek characters. But the
underlying language is English, just as I want it to be.
Strange however: when I switch to my root-environment, OO behaves like it
should, everything in 'our' characters.
More strange: I created a new user and did no configuration whatsoever (a
very rude environment to work in), started OO and... yes again everything
was okay.
I copied (with prior deleting the old directory) that new directory (with
appropriate chowning) to my normal user, made a warm reboot, started OO
and... no go, horrible mess again.
One thing, that puzzles me and maybe could give a hint as to where things
go wrong: as well as root as well as the new user the top-command doesn't
show a significant CPU-activity when I use OO. But as normal user the
process "soffice.bin" is constantly busy, flipping up and down, with a
load of up to 60%. And that as long as I have OO running.
Would you please be so kind to give a thought on this very annoying matter
and point me into a direction, where to look for a wrong configuration on
my side.
If you want more details or information, please bear in mind that I'm no
Linux-guru and give me therefore good instructions on how to achieve the
output you want to have.
BTW, you can communicate in German if you like to.

BTW, the CPU-load is still the same flipping constantly between 0 and 60%
but I assume this is of even less importance to you.
With kind regards,
Peter Holm
