Bug#263410: several issues
Package: tetex-base
Version: 2.0.2a-2
Severity: normal
1. From changelog:
* Static font map files are no longer treated as conffiles (or with
ucf), but instead are installed as ordinary files under
/usr/share/texmf. Nobody really needs to edit those files.....
I disagree: If e.g. anybody wants include not only subset of fonts
into his pdf/ps he has to edit the map-files.
Putting copies into the local texmf-tree is not that convenient.
2. /usr/share/texmf/dvips/config is a soft link and still points to
/etc/texmf/dvips . I guess, this is not intended, but rather to
/var/lib/texmf/dvips/config/
3. The files generated by updmap are now sitting in /var, but the old
generated files are still in /etc/texmf/dvips. I guess you want to
leave it to the end user to run remove-oldmaps and get rid of them.
4. As of tetex-2.0.2a-2 /usr/share/texmf/web2c is a dir and not a
soft link. We can move the tcx-files out of /var/lib/texmf/web2c to
there, as they are not generated files. patch attached.
