Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: r-base

If a graph is produced in R and used furtheron with LaTeX (sequence
latex -> dvips -> ps2pdf), some greek letters just disappear. In the
example below, all greek letters can be seen in the eps-file produced by
R, the capital Omega is still shown in the DVI an PS-file produced by
latex. However, the capital Omega is missing in the pdf (and in the
print).  It would be nice to have that capital Omega in the pdf and on
paper (print).
