Bug#73670: /var/lib/texmf/ls-R unwritable
Package: tetex-base
Version: 1.0-10
Package tetex-base creates directory /var/lib/texmf, where
dvips, xdvi etc, write generated fonts. Directories tfm and pk have
permissions 1777, but file ls-R where kpathsea keeps index of files
is root.root 644. This causes xdvi and dvips to fail to update index and
1. Issue annoying warning about unwritable files
2. When same font is needed again, start mktexpk again.
