Package: texlive-base-bin
Version: 2005-2
Severity: normal

ls -l /usr/share/texmf-texlive/web2c/*cnf
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7730 2005-08-27 18:28 /usr/share/texmf-texlive/web2c/context.cnf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   32 2006-06-28 13:54 /usr/share/texmf-texlive/web2c/fmtutil.cnf -> /var/lib/texmf/web2c/fmtutil.cnf
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root   28 2006-06-28 13:54 /usr/share/texmf-texlive/web2c/mktex.cnf -> /etc/texmf/texlive/mktex.cnf

The fmtutil.cnf symlink simply isn't needed, and mktex.cnf shouldn't be
a conffile, according to Policy 4.1

Regards, Frank
