That seems to be a completely messed up situation ... TeX creates fonts *either* in TEXMFVAR which is ~/.texmf-var/... or in FONTSCACHE which is /var/cache/fonts THe first mention "sbuild-nonexistent" seems to related to $HOME the second one to /var/cache/fonts/pk which of course cannot be created if not running as root (that is by default). But *HOW* that ever worked on testing I woul like to see. When was the last build of that package wiht TL2009 on testing? And whether it is possible to see where the fonts are put?
