Re: [NTG-context] New Debian context package based on context release 061207
Here it does work after installation of cont-fnt.zip. Or the current Debian context package. Hmm, I think the mess of tex configuration files in Unix has finally defeated me, and I will switch to using the debian context package and will retry Aditya's assignment document. That will also involve switching from the tetex-3.0 packages (on Ubuntu) to texlive, which I've been meaning to do for a while. I'll try it all tomorrow afternoon.

So here is -0.2, which does the following:
- install doc files
- do NOT install any map activation files in /etc/texmf/updmap.d
So if I understand correctly, ConTeXt (which I haven't used yet)
doesn't use the .map files anymore with pdfTeX? This might be
interesting for the CJK packages. Or is the change only relevant for
ConTeXt-specific fonts?
No, but the map files are installed into
/texmf/fonts/map/pdftex/context/...
so that context/pdftex finds them. But there is no need for activation
via updmap as *only* pdftex is used. Or at least this is how I
understand it.
the problem with a big map file is that it is potentially problematic
(it definitely was in the past) because there is some fuzzy logic
involved when embedded files are handled in pdftex;
so, in context, i don't preload all map files, but use \pdfmapfile{...}
to explicitly load a map file so that we can be sure we have the right
one -- keep in mind that we can have files on the system with similar
internal names (the one between in the map file) but different metric
(slant, ext, cap,...) ; so, when you have a problem with a missing file
(reported by pdftex), you can use \loadmapfile[somename.map] in context
