Hm. I wasn't aware of this, but that means that my code to translate paper names to paper dimensions by parsing config.ps is fragile. I think that changing the units is maybe a strange thing to do, but it should totally "legal". The conversion is needed for editing pdftexconfig.tex, which doesn't know about paper names. One possibility would be to extract the information from config.ps upon building the package or now for once, and installing the info somewhere in TEXMFMAIN - maybe texmf/web2c along with mktexnam and friends? > No idea. How do I get the correct one installed? dpkg -i --force-confnew /var/cache/apt/archives/texlive-base_2009-13_all.deb should work if the file is still there. If it doesn't, there's a different problem (either in ucf or our usage of it).
