Subject: [INTL:el] Blank characters appear with Greek locale

Package: openoffice.org
Version: 1.1.1-3
Severity: normal
Tags: l10n

(I am assigning this bug as normal, because it renders the program
unusable in a localized environment).

When in el_GR.UTF-8 locale, and when openoffice.org-l10n-el is installed
(which is the case when a user selects 'Greek environment' in d-i), the
program menus and dialog fonts appear as blanks.
The solution (pointed by Chris Halls) is to include a font known to
support Greek locale in file:
/usr/lib/openoffice/share/registry/data/org/openoffice/VCL.xcu

adding FreeSans to the UI_Sans entry for English seemed to fix this.

Thanks

Konstantinos
