The problem that the code is a real mess, it does not add the updmap-sys
call, but some magic strings that are tested for in case statements. It
is tricky.
Unfortunately I don't have time to think about that with TL2008 on the
back, and texinfo dpkg/GNU i-i transition.

SUTTON and CHEAM (nouns)
Sutton and cheam are the kinds of dirt into which all dirt is
divided. 'Sutton' is the dark sort that always gets on to
light-coloured things, 'cheam' the light-coloured sort that clings to
dark items. Anyone who has ever found Marmite stains on a dress-shirt
or seagull goo on a dinner jacket (a) knows all about sutton and
cheam, and (b) is going to some very curious dinner parties.
