jadetex: FTBFS: mktexdir failed

[Daniel Schepler <schepler@math.berkeley.edu>]

Package: jadetex
Version: 3.13-6
Severity: serious

From my pbuilder build log:

...
Transcript written on jadetex.log.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/buildd/jadetex-3.13'
pdflatex '\nonstopmode\input{jadetex.dtx}' > latex.log
kpathsea: Running mktextfm ecrm1000
mkdir: cannot create directory `././var/cache/fonts/tfm/jknappen': Permission denied
mktextfm: mktexdir /var/cache/fonts/tfm/jknappen/ec failed.
kpathsea: Appending font creation commands to missfont.log.
make: *** [build] Error 1

CC-ing the tetex list since it looks possible this is a bug in the TeTeX
packages instead.  (Sorry, unable to use X-Debbugs-CC here - kmail doesn't
support per-mail custom headers, and mail I send otherwise disappears
silently and mysteriously.)
