Interesting.

Even more interesting.
Can you give me the output of
ls -R /var/lib/tex-common/fontmap-cfg/
? And in additon your current /usr/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg, thanks
There should be NOT file
/var/lib/tex-common/fontmap-cfg/texmf/lmodern.cfg

That might be, but they should NEVER be included in the updmap.cfg
file if there is no file as mentioned above.
And if you removed lmodern and this file is still present,
I am wondering what has happened ...

You should not have
/var/lib/tex-common/fontmap-cfg/texmf/lmodern.cfg
and thebn run update-updmap as root

Wrong approach.

CRAIL (n. mineral)
Crail is a common kind of rock or gravel found widely across the
British Isles. Each individual stone (due to an as yet undiscovered
gravitational property) is charged with 'negative buoyancy'. This
means that no matter how much crail you remove from the garden, more
of it will rise to the surface. Crail is much employed by the Royal
Navy for making the paperweights and ashtrays used inside submarines.
