I've downloaded the tfm files from CTAN; they're identical to these
in your package:
hille@stable:~$ diff lcircle10.tfm /usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/tfm/public/latex-fonts/lcircle10.tfm
hille@stable:~$ diff /usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/tfm/public/latex-fonts/lcirclew10.tfm lcirclew10.tfm
What makes me wonder: the time stamp of the tfm files on CTAN is
1995-08-14 02:00:
hille@stable:~$ ls -l lcric*
total 8
-rw-r--r-- 1 hille hille 820 1995-08-14 02:00 lcircle10.tfm
-rw-r--r-- 1 hille hille 820 1995-08-14 02:00 lcirclew10.tfm
hille@stable:~$ dpkg -l texlive-latex-base

Unfortunately the submitter did not say *what* has changed in the tfm
files. Maybe a special kerning pair was fixed and I have to have that
pair in my test document to see the difference. Will you/should I ask
him?
