My cm-super fonts were installed from Debian-package I created myself.
If you download cm-super from CTAN, it has debian-directory for that
purpose.

When installing that Debian-package, it gives these errors:

grep: /etc/texmf/dvips/updmap: No such file or directory
grep: /etc/texmf/dvips/updmap: No such file or directory

One of those authors of cm-super told me:

It looks like the commands in the file "postinst" rely on old version
of teTeX to update the "updmap" file. In newer versions of teTeX, one
should use commands like

updmap --enable MixedMap cm-super-t1.map
updmap --enable MixedMap cm-super-ts1.map
updmap --enable MixedMap cm-super-t2a.map
updmap --enable MixedMap cm-super-t2b.map
updmap --enable MixedMap cm-super-t2c.map
updmap --enable MixedMap cm-super-x2.map

instead of editing the updmap script.

But now it seems, even that is obsolete way. A package called "lmodern" has
it done right and found my inspiration there: I have created a file
/etc/texmf/updmap.d/99local.cfg . It looks like this:


--- (Clip here) ---
Map bera.map
Map cm-lgc.map
Map hfbright.map
Map uaq.map
Map ugq.map
Map webo.map
MixedMap cm-super-t1.map
MixedMap cm-super-ts1.map
MixedMap cm-super-t2a.map
MixedMap cm-super-t2b.map
MixedMap cm-super-t2c.map
MixedMap cm-super-x2.map
--- (Clip here) ---

Then I run "update-updmap" and "updmap". I had those embedding problems
before creating that file and I still have those embedding problems.
Did I something wrong?

Here is whole output of that command:

  tetex-bin/cnf_name:
* tetex-bin/texmf: true
  tetex-bin/updmap-failed:
* tetex-bin/groupperm: true
* tetex-bin/lsr-perms: true
* tetex-bin/upd_map: true
* tetex-bin/fmtutil: true
  tetex-bin/fmtutil-failed:
* tetex-bin/userperm: false
* tetex-bin/hyphen: german[=austrian-alte_Rechtschreibung],
* ngerman[=naustrian-neue_Rechtschreibung], finnish, french[=patois],
* latin
  tetex-bin/oldcfg: true
* tetex-bin/use_debconf: true
* tetex-bin/groupname: users

Now I'll try, what happens, if I de-install all tetex-packages and all
packages that depend on them. Then I reinstall them.
