I'm trying to compile an CV with europecv. Unfortunately this is no longer working as expected. I last tried it in late 2019 which works fine. Using this example...

... I receive the following error message (using TexLive 2019):
Line 112: No declaration for shape OT1/phv/mc/sl. \ecvlanguageheader{(*)}
...
Line 119: No declaration for shape OT1/phv/mc/sl. \ecvlanguagefooter{(*)}
This is a Demo CV from the web which throws the same error. In my real CV, I'm using german language.
It seems that specific characters are missing.
The logfile shows the following error:
! No declaration for shape T1/phv/mc/sl.
sub@sfcnt ...e forspace shapespace mandatory@arg }
error@fontshape else #1{Fo...
l.38 \ecvlanguageheader{(*)}
(That was another \errmessage.)
**Missing character: There is no ä in font cmr10!**
