I'm seeing massive problems here. I used TeX Live 2004 for quite some 
time now and, after some initial problems, had it running flawlessly. 
After making  the newest updates my fonts are screwed up: I get the 
following error in all kind of variants:

Warning: /usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current/pdflatex 
(file /User
s/simi/Library/texmf/fonts/type1/adobe/garste/pegr8a.pfb): character 
235 is map
ped to .notdef

Warning: /usr/local/teTeX/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin-current/pdflatex

(file /User

ped to .notdef

My fonts are only displayed as squares. I already tried 'sudo updmap' 
and     sudo ln -s pdftex_ndl14.map 
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map 
and   sudo ln -s pdftex_dl14.map  
/usr/local/teTeX/share/texmf.local/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map 
without success.

Help is very much appreciated.
