Accourding to http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=141332
the order of the search paths for fonts have changed in
/etc/X11/fs/config.

I changed following line:

catalogue = /usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/CID/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/

to

catalogue = /usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/cyrillic/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/CID/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/

and all worked as expected.

So long
Thomas
