Debian lenny: font-troubles after upgrade yesterday


Hi there,

Yesterday I upgraded my office-computers to current, and several high-usage packages (evolution, oo.o) were upgraded. Now I'm having trouble with the font I'm using in our company letters (called CG_Omega.ttf):

- on screen it looks as if the font is less 'thick', like anti-aliasing is off or something... I'm not even sure I'm viewing the same font on my screen...

- inside PDF (using OO.o export function) the spaces between bold characters change: mostly normal, but sometimes I have double, triple or quadruple spaces...

This happens on all 3 of our machines, and they were all upgraded at the same time. Beneath I've pasted the changed package-list I found in /var/log/aptitude:

Does anybody know where to start looking for the culprit? I'm using Linux since a year and a half, and I'm still learning a great deal here...

THX!
