Indeed, there's a mismatch: in this file (actually,
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/youpla/complete/ot1cmr.fd) , I read :

\DeclareFontShape{OT1}{cmr}{m}{sc}%
{- cmsc10}{}

What do you think of that?
 


It looks like the culprit. Now, the question is, where does this file
come from?

Please tell us the output of:

% dpkg -S /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/youpla/complete/ot1cmr.fd

I don't find this file with 'apt-file search', so I suppose it doesn't
come from Debian. Maybe you installed a 'youpla' package yourself on
this system? You should have used /usr/local for such an installation.
The rest of /usr is reserved for Debian packages.
   



ACK.

Most likely this comes from http://www.loria.fr/~thome/youpla/. Looking
at the 'development' version 0.4, there is indeed such a fd file. The
aim of the fd files in youpla is to have the CM fonts arbitrarily
scalable. The recommended way of doing this is

\RequirePackage{fix-cm}
\documentclass[options]{class}
[...]

Actually, fix-cm.sty might help in your case, but most likely you still
should remove the fd files from youpla and rebuild the formats.

As a side note, I find it really strange that somebody wants to use CM
fonts for presentations. I would switch to beamer.cls (package
latex-beamer) for presentations.

youpla used to be a debian package. Indeed, it's no longer a debian 
package and beamer does an excellent job.


Furthermore, that's right, the presence of the youpla package was 
creating the problem, don't know exactly why, nor how...


Thanks a lot for help!

Philippe

PS : I also acknowledge the help of marc tommasi, who atually did the 
work on my pc.

Bug#354549: tetex-base: fails to build cmsc10.tfm

2006-02-27 Thread Philippe Preux
Package: tetex-base
Version: 3.0-14
Severity: normal

It seems that there is something wrong with \textsc and fonts
cmsc10 and cmcsc10...



-- Package-specific info:
If you report an error when running one of the TeX-related binaries 
(latex, pdftex, metafont,...), or if the bug is related to bad or wrong
output, please include a MINIMAL example input file that produces the
error in your report. Don't forget to also include minimal examples of
other files that are needed, e.g. bibtex databases. Often it also helps
to include the logfile. Please, never send included pictures!

If your example file isn't short or produces more than one page of
output (except when multiple pages are needed to show the problem),
you can probably minimize it further. Instructions on how to do that
can be found at

http://www.latex-einfuehrung.de/mini-en.html (english)

or
