Please note that I checked the problem to occur with an installation of
Canorus 0.5.  Canorus has advanced to a new version since then.  For me
the solution was to simply delete the Canorus package.  I have no idea
whether newer versions of Debian packagings of Canorus will mangle the
font installation in different ways or install TrueType fonts at all.
