It looks like upstream problem here. The metadata for palatino package
lacks any AddMap or AddMixedMap commands so no action is triggered WRT
MAP files on installation. This is OK from the metadata interpretation
point of view (downstream) but not from upstream packaging.

Furthermore palatino package contains only one map file -> upl.map. It
is worth reporing as a bug to tex-l...@tug.org IMO.
