Bug#248308: tetex-bin: lost directories in /var/cache/fonts are not recreated
Package: tetex-bin
Version: 2.0.2-13.bunk
Severity: minor
If the directories pk/, tfm/, and source/ within the /var/cache/fonts
directory are lost (e.g. because there was no backup of
/var/cache...), they will not be recreated by tetex-bin's
postinst. This is because it simply looks into
/etc/texmf/varfontdirs.debian and does not check whether the
information therein is correct.
Just a reminder, we should resolve this somewhen.
