Interesting also that both of you appear to have german as your
default language.  I wonder if one of the default fonts you are using
is different and is providing bad font metrics.  Could you run a
script in the environment which produces the error with
--verbose-debug, and then again in the environment which doesn't with
the same flag and post the output of both cases.  Maybe something
about first installing 0.82 and then removing it makes a difference in
which fonts are found.  Just guessing.  But verbose-debug will at
least identify which font files are being loaded.


If you could do the same Willi, we might be able to triangulate on the
common cause for this problem.
