Great, glad that was it. I don't know if there is an Ubuntu bug
tracking this problem, it would not hurt to check and report one if
you are so inclined.

It's actually in /usr/share/fonts/woff where the problem lies. The
opentype and truetype fonts are not a problem.

I agree, there is no way to apt-get remove the package the right way
without removing the TeX packages. The only workaround that has worked
for me is to simply delete the *.woff files. Unfortunately they do
return when the packages are updated (I'm on Debian testing), so this
bug returns and I have to delete them again. Eventually some new
ghostscript version will fix this. For now, I do
sudo find /usr/share/fonts/woff -name \*.woff -exec rm -f {} +
HTH,
