Hi,
as far as I understood the font "Tex Gyre Termes" (is it a font, or what is
it?) is configured to be used instead of (the font?) "Times" because it is
similar?

Not knowing much about fontconfig, I found Termes configured in
/etc/fonts/conf.d/30-metric-aliases.conf und
/etc/fonts/conf.d/30-fonts-texgyre-aliases.conf
In both files I commented out the parts with Tex Gyre Termes relating to Times
(using <!-- ... --> ) and afterwards everything is displayed fine.
So the workaround is good for me, I hope it helps other, too, but it sure
doesn't FIX the bug and I'm also not sure if all those commenting out is
necessary. Maybe someone could comment on this...
