Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: lmodern
On an Ubuntu Gutsy system, installing a full TeX/LaTeX suite in one go:
====BEGIN TERMINAL SESSION====
apt-get install lmodern tetex-doc-nonfree tetex-extra texlive-generic-extra
texpower
[...]
Setting up lmodern (1.010x-3) ...
warning: /usr/lib/X11/fonts/Type1 does not exist or is not a directory

Running mktexlsr. This may take some time... done.
Running updmap-sys. This may take some time...
updmap-sys failed. Output has been stored in
/tmp/updmap.fPR29844
Please include this file if you report a bug.
Sometimes, not accepting conffile updates in /etc/texmf/updmap.d
causes updmap-sys to fail. Please check for files with extension
.dpkg-dist or .ucf-dist in this directory

====END TERMINAL SESSION====
The output of updmap-sys:
====BEGIN /tmp/updmap.fPR29844====
updmap: This is updmap, version 1167072206

updmap: Scanning for LW35 support files
!!! ERROR! The map file `dvips35.map' has not been found at all.
Either put this file into the right place or remove the
reference from the configuration files - see
update-updmap(1).
====END /tmp/updmap.fPR29844====
The dvips35.map file is correctly installed as /usr/share/texmf-
texlive/fonts/map/dvips/tetex/dvips35.map by the texlive-base-bin
package, and re-running "apt-get install lmodern" after the above
installation causes the package configuration to complete successfully.
I believe this is a case where the lmodern package attempted to install
itself too early in the process, before the necessary file was in place,
and that an appropriate inter-package dependency may address the
problem.
