Assume that we go this way, looking at your patch I have some
questions:

Are you sure that all the fonts that are in
texmf-dist/fonts/type1/{adobe,bitstrea,urw}/*/*.pfb
in the texlive-base.orig.tar.gz, now and in future, will be installed
into texlive-fonts-recommended? I am not sure.
I guess it would be better to move this snippet to a later place,
and search for
for p in debian/texmf-fonts-recommended/usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist...
instead. What do you think?
Concerning the selectin of fonts, did you check:
* arkandis
* some of the gust/poltawski/ (the 10pt fonts) might be of interest
* nowacki/*
* ...
I guess the list of directories to be checked should actually be
managed somewhere outside the rules file, in a file under debian.
Anyway, what do you think? And I guess I will include something like this
in the git packaging.
Best wishes
Norbert
