Bug#334658: lm.map not found while configuring tetex-bin 3

I agree; thanks for the analysis. The problem should disappear in about 5 hours when lmodern 0.92-9 is dinstalled (0.92-9 uses the new updmap scheme and therefore doesn't need the preinst trick to install 10lmodern.cfg). Everything gets in order as soon as that version is configured (since this causes lm.map to be installed).

I have checked now, and the only problem it seems to cause is the creation of /usr/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg, which unfortunately shadows /var/lib/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg when updmap-sys is run, as pointed out by Ralf (thanks!). It seems to me it would be a good idea to call 'rm -f /usr/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg' maybe in tetex-bin's postinst, somewhere before the updmap-sys run. Otherwise, I fear updmap-sys will keep updating /usr/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg instead of /var/lib/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg.

Bug#334658: lm.map not found while configuring tetex-bin 3
Hi, In case that wasn't clear, people who encountered this problem should: 1. # rm -f /usr/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg if they followed the bad advice of running 'updmap-sys --syncwithtrees' (anyway, that file shouldn't exist with Debian teTeX 3). 2. Upgrade their lmodern package to the version in sid (0.92-9) and configure whatever isn't configured yet, starting with lmodern. (if your package manager doesn't configure lmodern first, no problem; as soon as it does that, the rest will follow; just repeat the configuration process if necessary) -- Florent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

The way I see it right now, both 'updmap-sys --syncwithtrees' and 'updmap-sys --edit' create '/usr/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg'. Especially the latter is quite likely to be used at some point by a local admin who hasn't read the Debian specific docs. I don't think that removing '/usr/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg' during tetex-bin's configuration would be enough. cheerio ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
