I have a related problem with Nimbus Sans L after switching to Oneiric.
This font appears in condensed mode both in the edit and slideshow modes
(in this bug report, this problem is reported only in slideshow mode).
If you face this too, here is a workaround that I applied to make the
edit mode work again...
1/ Look for the font files for "Nimbus Sans L Condensed"
grep "Nimbus Sans" /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/*.afm | grep
Condensed/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/n019043l.afm:FullName Nimbus Sans L
Regular Condensed
/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/n019044l.afm:FullName Nimbus Sans L Bold
Condensed
/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/n019063l.afm:FullName Nimbus Sans L Regular
Condensed Italic
/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/n019064l.afm:FullName Nimbus Sans L Bold
Condensed Italic
2/ Remove the corresponding files:
rm /usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts/n0190{43,44,63,64}l.*
Again, this just fixes edit mode, not slideshow mode, which is still
broken (probably becahse of the LibreOffice bug reported here)
In my case, this is sufficient, because I export my documents to PDF,
and I don't observe any problem viewing the PDF files then.
To revert your changes:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall gsfonts
Hope this helps. Don't hesitate to let me know if you wish me to file a
separate bug.
