Bug#180770: generated files in /etc
Package: tetex-base
Version: 2.0-1
Severity: serious
Tags: sid
File /etc/texmf/dvips/pdftex_ndl14.map and friends are tagged as conffile,
despite the file contents reading:
% pdftex_ndl14.map: maintained by the script updmap.
% Don't change this file directly. Edit texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg
% and run updmap to recreate this file.
1. they should not be conffiles
2. as generated files, they belong to /var, possibly with compat symlinks
from /etc if you don't want to change the source, but upstream should
consider moving them there too.
