Sorry, this may not help much, because on my system, like I said in comment
#39, running `fmtutil-sys --refresh` already fixed the pdflatex problem. But
for what it is worth, this is the output:

:~>   ls -lG /etc/texmf/ls-R /var/cache/texmf/fonts/ls-R /usr/share/texmf/ls-R
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root 897 Jul 24 10:00 /etc/texmf/ls-R
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root  24 Jul 21 22:52 /usr/share/texmf/ls-R ->
/var/lib/texmf/main/ls-R
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root 315 Jul 24 10:00 /var/cache/texmf/fonts/ls-R

Let me try to see if I can reproduce the problem in a virtual machine and
investigate thereafter.

Btw, could https://build.opensuse.org/request/show/512248, which is not yet in
Factory be the fix for my problem?

Thanks!
