Thats good to hear, however do you have any idea why the "old" defoma
config doesn't work for all lm-fonts that are installed? As I already
said, some (LMSans, LMRoman, LMTypeWriter) are listed after
incorporating the hints-file into defoma in fc-list but the LMSlanted
are missing. They are given in the defoma-hint-file and the font-files
are at the place mentioned in that file.
