With the following minimal example the compile runs fine w/o EC tfm
files installed:
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage[french]{babel}
\begin{document}
A.
\end{document}
However one gets a warning:
Package frenchb.ldf Warning: OT1 encoding should not be used for French.
(frenchb.ldf) Add \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} to the preamble
(frenchb.ldf) of your document, on input line 5.
Hence the submitter added the \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}, which
requires fonts w/ T1 encoding. Simply using the lmodern package does
not cause the problem, they can be used w/ OT1 encoding too.
So, if the lmodern fonts have they own tfm files (which is the case)
it is not understandable, why the tfm files of the EC fonts are
used/read.
hi...@sid:~ $ dpkg -L lmodern |grep tfm|grep cork|wc -l

One could assume this behaviour to be a bug, but far from important.
