They were not there in sarge.  But I think there was a version in etch
and sid soon after the release of sarge where we put loads of files into
etc (because you have to change the map file if you want to enable
partial font inclusion only for certain fonts).  Later they were
removed.  

We check for known md5sums, and if the files are not altered, they are
removed.  Moshe, can you please run "md5sum <filename>" for each of
these obsolete map files in /etc/texmf/dvips (or subdirectories thereof)
and send us the output?

find /etc/texmf/dvips/ -name "*map" | xargs md5sum
