> The problem is not the postinst, because updmap also hangs, if it is invoked in a similar situation from the command line. (Delete one map file, which is references in updmap and call updmap with the same parameters as in postinst, so it should be possible to reproduce the hang).

> The postinst of tetex-base works not, if updmap is present in the file system (that means tetex-bin is installed or unpacked) and updmap is called, if a map file is missing.

tetex-base was fixed not to call update-updmap already
so packaging system should work now.

The only problem you care is updmap lacks some feature 
so I believe this is of wishlist.

When I can find free time I will report this problem to 
the upstream.

Thanks for your interest in tetex packages.
