Bug#299936: Debian adaptations for "updmap --enable" and "updmap --diable"



Hi all,

as you might have noticed, I started writing a script that would allow
the commands in the subject to be run on a Debian system, and have a
*permanent* effect, even if update-updmap is called afterwards.

It seems to me that this is also an issue for the texlive packages.
What about moving the script snippet to tex-common?  teTeX and texlive
would then just patch updmap to source and use it.

What do you think about that, Norbert?  And if you agree, I'd like to
hear your opinion about the approach if --enable is used and the script
finds a commented line for the respective Map in more than one file in
updmap.d.  Should we stop with an error in any case, or do you think
that using a scheme similar to that I proposed in the file
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-tetex/tetex-bin/trunk/debian/debianize-updmap?op=file&rev=0&sc=0
would do?



Regards, Frank
