    That was an issue with me not accepting a conffile update. The paths
    changed.

    I guess it was because you didn't accept the update to /etc/texmf/texmf.d/05TeXMF.cnf, right?

    What do you think should be done to resolve this wishlist bug? What kind
    of explanation in dpkg's diff would have convinced you?

    There doesn't seem to be an awful lot to include.

    This looks suspiciously like a duplicat for 263343, but I feel it's a
    different beast.
