So it'd be a better idea to symlink all the relevant .pfb and .afm
files into /usr/share/fonts/type1 than adding their directories to
fontconfig's search pattern, right?

I have added a few lines to debian/rules that take all the .pfb files in the adobe, bitstrea and urw directories, checks if a corresponding .afm file exists and than adds symlinks for both files to debian/texlive-fonts-recommended.links. These symlinks point to /usr/share/fonts/type1/texlive-fonts-recommended/, where the fonts can be found by fontconfig. Of course, this directory has to be created in advance, e.g. by means of a debian/texlive-fonts-recommended.dirs file.

I have restricted this procedure to the adobe, bitstrea and urw fonts, because I think they are the only ones in the package that add value for non-TeX related applications. I have checked the other fonts as well, but they are either symbol fonts (public/eurosym, public/marvosym, public/wasy) or specialized duplicates of Times (public/txfonts) or Palatino (public/fpl, public/mathpazo, public/pxfonts) or exist only in uppercase (public/rsfs).
