What about this? I am not completely convinced about it since with updmap we generate input file for all the different programs.
one may assume that by now indeed most trees are tds compliant (for context users there is textools --fixtexmftrees)
The second part, $TEXMF/dvips//, is a Debian-specific backwards-compatibility hack to allow fonts to be found that install their map files according to the old (teTeX 2.0) TDS. We should drop it as soon as etch is out, and we should probably have done that even earlier. The first I don't quite understand, we actually have:
% TEXFONTMAPS = .;$TEXMF/{fonts/map,}/{$progname,pdftex,dvips,}// TEXFONTMAPS = .;$TEXMF/{fonts/,}map//;$TEXMF/dvips//
This looks like we dropped the program-specific paths (and with that their order), and like it wouldn't have been necessary to add a hack (but I know that at the time of the teTex-3.0-beta-release when I introduced it it *was* necessary).
the first (commented) one is indeed the one that is needed in order to let dvipdfmx work nicely (even more important now that xetex uses dvipdfmx as backend) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | fax: 038 477 53 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
