Re: Font problems in 2.3.24

[Alexandre Beneteau]

Hello,

I have similars problem using like you lily 2.3.24 (Debian Sid) from Pedro's 
repository, having installed latest ec-fonts-mftraced and cleaned my 
var/cache/fonts.
To complete your bug-report, I would notice that :

At default staff size :

- dvi produced by lily is correctly displayed in xdvi (but not by kdvi which 
does not find music-drawing-routines.ps, but I guess it's another history !)
- ps produced by lily is correctly displayed by gv but grace notes and fermatas 
on bars are not correctly displayed (> like you for the firsts and L for fermata !)
- pdf produced by lily has the same problems with gv and acroread.

At other staff size :

- dvi is correctly handled in xdvi
- other formats have the mess you describe.

Anybody has an idea about the source of the problem ?
Is it a debian-package problem or lily's fault ?
TIA,

        Alex.
