I don't understand. Shouldn't tetex-bin call the update-* scripts before generating formats/map files/... [Looking into common.functions.in] It seems it doesn't. IMO that's the bigger problem. But then, calling the update-* scripts should be safe at any time. However, now there is an unconditional call to mktexlsr in tetex-base's postinst jusst before the update-* scripts are called. IMO this is unsafe (tetx-bin might not be installed) an unnecessary (the update-* scripts don't use kpathsearching). cheerio ralf
