Bug#366907: tetex-bin: Fails to configure, updmap failed



I've lost the thread of what's going on here, but I'll presume good
things are happening.

To answer what questions I think are being asked of me:
I do not set DEBIAN_FRONTEND explicitly, I don't know if something else sets it.
I do not think I have apt-utils installed.  On my computer, questions
are generally asked while unpacking, I think.

I believe that the 05TeXMF.cnf is the only file I customized in the
tetex family of packages.  At one point I had
/etc/texmf/dvips/config.ps customized but I'm not sure that's true
anymore (I'm not at that computer now so I can't check).

Yes. I guess this is meanwhile irrelevant, though, since you allready
commited the patch.
