[ Re-sending this message, since it didn't make it to the debian servers, apparently. This time, I am using a different MTA and dropped the "é" from Jean-Charles's name in the headers. Grmmpf. Jean-Charles, did you receive the previous one, at least? ] Hi, Ralf Stubner <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I think the problem is that lmodern creates "10lmodern.cfg" in preinst. 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). [ 0.92-7 cannot be configured because tetex-bin cannot itself be configured since the 10lmodern.cfg installed in preinst declares lm.map, which is absent as long as lmodern isn't configured... ] For people who have the problem, I suggest: # cd /tmp # wget http://incoming.debian.org/lmodern_0.92-9_all.deb # dpkg -i lmodern_0.92-9_all.deb # rm -f /etc/texmf/dvips/lm.map.dpkg-new # dpkg --configure -a This should fix everything I am aware of, except maybe the possible mess caused if you followed the 'updmap-sys --syncwithtrees' advice. I still have to check exactly what this does. > However, the behviour of 'updmap-sys --syncwithtrees' is not correct. > Should I make a separate bug for this? Yes, I think it is an annoyance for us.
