No it is not, websvn is your friend: >From CHANGES.packaging: 27.05.2006 NP .. * add a patch by Ralf Stubner to mktexnam (accepted by TE and included upstream) to create TEXMFVAR in mktexnam. First step to do another /var/cache/fonts retry. So I guess with -3 we are rid of this problem. BTW, I am thinking about doing minor upgrades directly from the source packages and give them version -2a -2b -2c etc and version -3 is for a complete rebuild. Does this make sense?
