Bug#338597: lmodern is unusable with context from the latest teTeX.
Package: lmodern
Version: 0.92-11
Hello, I am running debian unstable with the following packages installed:
ii lmodern 0.92-11
ii tetex-base 3.0-10
ii tetex-bin 3.0-10.1
ii tetex-extra 3.0-10
The CONTEXT distribution that is contained in the above tetex packages
requires the lmodern fonts in EC encoding. Unfortunately the lmodern package
currently in unstable contains the fonts in cork encoding. Since the lmodern
package is currently orphaned is there perhaps some sort of workaround, like
regenerating the .tfm files somehow?
Thank you,
Kostantinos Koukopoulos
PS. A sample run of texexec follows:
$ cat test.tex
\starttext
\framed{Installation test for \aleph}
\stoptext
$ texexec test.tex
