I don't have an explanation, then. But I also don't see how we could debug this further - finding out what might have deleted a file at an unknown time point in the past seems hard to do. Do you agree that we can close this bug as unreproducible? > (My i386 chroot did have the same problem with 00updmap.cfg btw.) This is a bug I understand (somehow), and it's going to be fixed in the next upload of tex-common. Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Inst. f. Biochemie der Univ. Zürich Debian Developer
