Hello Kai, I am the maintainer of grace & grace6. Your problem is very similar to http://bugs.debian.org/314923 Basically, some symlinks in /usr/share/grace/fonts/type1 were pointing to unexisting files. The bad symlinks were caused by the package ec-fonts-mftraced. It looks like it has been fixed now, so simply upgrading it might solve the problem. Please tell me how things work. Best regards, Ionut PS Please reinstall grace6 after upgrading ec-fonts-mftraced. -- *************** * IonutGeorgescu * Max-Planck-Institut fuer Physik komplexer Systeme * Noethnitzer Str. 38, D-01187 Dresden * Phone: +49 (351) 871-2209 * Fax: +49 (351) 871-1999
