Bug#293179: tetex-bin: got dvips running, but ps2pdf fails

[jack@scriptserver.homeunix.net]

Package: tetex-bin
Version: 2.0.2-26
Followup-For: Bug #293179

i use the courier font a lot to typeset linux shellcode,
but in the debian testing the backticks appear wrongly
in the output. pdflatex got it all right, but dvips messed them up.

So I compared the strace of both and found that the line concerning
pcrr8 fonts is slightly different:
diff /var/lib/texmf/dvips/config/pdftex.map
/var/lib/texmf/dvips/base/psfonts.map | grep pcrr

So I patched the psfonts.map file and changed the line:
----
pcrr8rn Courier " .85 ExtendFont TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont " <8r.enc
----
to
---
pcrr8rn " .85 ExtendFont TeXBase1Encoding ReEncodeFont " <8r.enc <ucrr8a.pfb
---

And it worked !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well............... At least half of it.
********************************************
As of now, I tried it on the intel machine:
dvips worked this time, but ps2pdf had the same problem as before.
I don't figure out the difference between the two versions,
(I use sarge on powerpc and the production system
is sarge on i386), whereas on the powerpc machine both work. 


NOTE: This Report is a duplicat of the mail sent to the maintainer,
but it contains the info from the intel machine, which does not work
