Bug#510966: latest mgp package doesn't display any presentation, not even included examples



Hello,

I've been happily using mgp 1.13a for some time now.
Today, I used the following presentation with it :
http://www.linux-france.org/prj/inetdoc/cours/explore.gnulinux/seance.4/index.html

Do you mind sending me an example which fails to load ?

The included examples have not been usable for quite a long time as the font 
management had been changed.
I think these examples are not present in the snapshot source distribution of 
mgp.

Regards,
