I had the same problem described int bug report #197891 and after trying to resolve the problem myself using apt & dpkg and even touching the file
/etc/texmf/dvips/updmap according to the bug report this should have fixed the removal, but it think i may have inadvertently forced the removal of some important? tex program cause now i am unable to remove pxfonts because i'm missing the program mktexlsr. I get the following message from apt bash-2.05b# apt-get -f install Reading Package Lists... Done Building Dependency Tree... Done Correcting dependencies... Done The following packages will be REMOVED: pxfonts 0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 0 not upgraded. Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 2974kB will be freed.
