Most of the available font packages provide map files, and the only required modification is to reference them in the updmap file. The new updmap.cfg syntax seems perfect to handle those font packages, but it shouldn't be a conffile. We could put everything in e.g. /etc/texmf/updmap.d/ and get /usr/bin/updmap to read all files in this directory instead of its single conffile. The, font packages would only have to put a file referencing their .map's in this directory. Regards, -- .''`.
