fakeroot debian/rules binary
I added a "ls" to debian/rules and got:
...
ls -al /var/cache/fonts
total 24
drwxrwsr-t 5 root users 4096 May 14 07:03 .
drwxr-xr-x 8 root root 4096 May 14 07:02 ..
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root users 119 May 14 07:04 ls-R
drwxrwsr-t 2 root users 4096 May 10 13:07 pk
drwxrwsr-t 2 root users 4096 May 10 13:07 source
drwxrwsr-t 2 root users 4096 May 10 13:07 tfm
...
So it seems by default tex-common install the font directories not world
writable again.
Greetings Arjan Oosting
