Now, the question is, where does this file come from? Please tell us the output of: % dpkg -S /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/youpla/complete/ot1cmr.fd I don't find this file with 'apt-file search', so I suppose it doesn't come from Debian. Maybe you installed a 'youpla' package yourself on this system? You should have used /usr/local for such an installation. The rest of /usr is reserved for Debian packages.ACK. Most likely this comes from http://www.loria.fr/~thome/youpla/. Looking at the 'development' version 0.4, there is indeed such a fd file. The aim of the fd files in youpla is to have the CM fonts arbitrarily scalable. The recommended way of doing this is \RequirePackage{fix-cm} \documentclass[<options>]{<class>} [...] Actually, fix-cm.sty might help in your case, but most likely you still should remove the fd files from youpla and rebuild the formats. As a side note, I find it really strange that somebody wants to use CM fonts for presentations. I would switch to beamer.cls (package latex-beamer) for presentations. cheerio ralf
youpla used to be a debian package. Indeed, it's no longer a debian package and beamer does an excellent job.
Furthermore, that's right, the presence of the youpla package was creating the problem, don't know exactly why, nor how...
Thanks a lot for help! PhilippePS : I also acknowledge the help of marc tommasi, who atually did the work on my pc.
