So the following in postinst and postrm would be ok
        /usr/bin/update-updmap
        # if the -sys variant exists (texlive, tetex3) call it,
        # otherwise call the original updmap
        if [ -x /usr/sbin/updmap-sys ] ; then
            /usr/sbin/updmap-sys
        else
            /usr/bin/env updmap
        fi


BTW: How should we continue with cm-super package? You could sponsor it
and upload, since the old one has a different name. But OTOH I consider
this a bit inpolite. Again OTOH, I haven't heard anything from Mickael
Profeta since some time, not one response.

Best wishes
