Bug#61627: this is serious
cm> To make this change, we would need to modify
cm> tetex-bin:texmf.d/05TeXMF to use /var/cache instead of /var/spool
cm> (easy). Slightly harder is deciding what to do about existing PK
cm> fonts. Off the top of my head, we could
cm> 1. Delete them, and allow them to be regenerated on-the-fly
cm> 2. Move the fonts from their old location to the new location
cm> 3. Allow the systems administrator to decide whether to move the
cm> fonts or not
I was silently assuming 1), but I don't have a preference, really.
Any of the 3 will do for me.
cm> Man cannot be civilised, or be kept civilised by what he does in
cm> his spare time; only by what he does as his work. W.R. Lethaby
Is this tongue-in-cheek? I'd say exactly the opposite is the true, in
our times.

The world has taken on a thickness of vulgarity that raises
a spiritual man's contempt to the violence of a passion. Baudelaire
