It shouldn't hurt. Why: Even without *anything* cionfigured calls to mktexlsr and updmap-sys should work without any problem. In fact I already have thought about moving some of the basic scripts from tetex/texlive to tex-common (like the scripts mktexlsr, updmap(-sys) etc) as they are really the same and are really basic. But this was just an idea. > configured. For a start, tetex-bin's postinst calls update-texmf. Also, > Debian Policy doesn't allow to assume it will work. If it is indeed Why? All the files are there in /etc/texmf (bacause they are installed by tex-common!), and update-texmf does nothing special.
