** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: texlive-pictures
  
- Distribution: edgy.
- The package texlive-pictures provides, among the others, the kuvio LaTeX 
package. However it does not install the file Uarrsy.fd. Without it kuvio can't 
be used with the option to use its own fonts, because it will produce garbage. 
Kuvio fonts are necessary to use many of kuvio functionalities.
+ The kuvio LaTeX package has been removed from texlive packages because
+ it is not DFSG free. It perhaps could be packaged up for Ubuntu
+ Multiverse however. Below is the original bug report:

  Kuvio font files are available on CTAN at
  http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/generic/diagrams/kuvio/arrsy/
  
  I had a look at kuvio makefile-dist and it seems that it doesn't install
  Uarrsy.fd. So, probably the bug is upstream. Since kuvio is unmantained
  (but perfectly working) since 1996, it probably won't change.
  
  I've not been able to find out where in texmf tree Uarrsy.fd is
  installed.
