Bug#240231: tetex-bin: mktextfm fails to create font
Package: tetex-bin
Version: 2.0.2-10
Severity: minor
The mktextfm program is unable to create the ecrm1095.tfm font file. It
is not a permission issue, because the same problem happens even if I
run the program as root.
The tetex installation used to create the fonts flawlessly. Thanks for
your great effort on packaging tetex.
Below is an excerpt of the execution.
$mktextfm ecrm1095
