Dear all!

This package needs serious rework to make it work properly with tetex
and texlive.

First of all it shouldn't be a native package, but a normal package.

I prepared a fixed version which is available from
        deb(-src) http://www.tug.org/texlive/Debian/ check/
There is also a rebuild .orig.tar.gz removing the debian subdir.

Please check it out. The changelog is here, what is missing the closing
of the bug wrt dh_installtexfonts

   * Several fixes:
     - make the package work with the current TDS by installing the map
       files in the right location
     - remove the useless call to dh_installtexfonts, and use dh_installtex
       to actually install a map file
     - remove the dh_installxfonts call as long as the fonts are not made
       available to X
     - install the metafont sources
     - install the font files into {tfm,sources,type1}/public/sanskrit
       ie adding public
     - making the package not a Debian specific, it has an upstream,
       although not active anymore.
     - remove the empty maintainer scripts, the necessary ones are
       generated automatically by debhelper/dh_installtex.
     - remove unnecessary build dependencies
     - depend alternatively on texlive-base
     - add tex-common to the depends via misc:Depends variable
     - remove generated README.type1
     - remove call to make without makefile
