Can you send me the log of running that file in lenny, and the log
of running that file in sid, both on your computer. 

Thanks.

I made a quick check and found that the onyl problem is with strange
path in the document, paths using \ which is not the best thing to do.

The attached simply diff makes it work, it is nothing but changing a
few \ to \\ (which is not the best idea, only to get it running ;-)

Best wishes

Norbert
