Bitstream Charter comes from package xorg-x11-fonts, which has not been updated since 42.2 release. Neither has package bitstream-vera-fonts been updated since 42.2 release. Bitstream Charter fonts are bitmap files, while Vera's are scalable (.ttf).

Maybe the problem you see is connected to a Java update? LO is intertwined with Java. Take a look at the tail of /etc/sysconfig/fonts-config for a possible clue. Also, is the timestamp on that file freshly changed? Here it's not, but this is a 42.2 installation with neither Java nor LO installed.
FWIW, I believe I just replicated Michael's problem. There were a bunch of updates pending and I accepted them all except the LibreOffice one. I then checked I had Bitstream Charter in my font list and I did. I then accepted the LibreOffice update and now I no longer have Bitstream Charter in my font list. :( I have no idea why and have had no time to investigate, but the problem is real and does not affect just the OP. I do observe that the update is listed as a 'security' update but is in fact a major version update, which seems at best a misleading description. It also pulled in a bunch of extra packages for more functionality that I have no interest in. So I am one very disappointed punter at present. AFAICT, if Michael really cares about this font, one cure might be to go into YaST and downgrade to the previous version. I haven't tried that myself so I can't be sure it will solve his problem. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
