[Debian-in-workers] Bug#476507: Font names in latex-sanskrit

[Jérémie Detrey]

Package: latex-sanskrit
Version: 2.2-4

It seems that the type1 fonts are not correctly named with respect to
the font map file `skt.map'.

This prevents ghostscript from finding those fonts when you process your
document via LaTeX + dvips. (Although it works fine with pdfLaTeX.)

>From my investigation of the bug, it appears that the type1 fonts in the
package are not in sync with the upstream package as available on CTAN:
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/language/sanskrit/

For instance, in the `skt.map' file, you will find the following line:
  skt10   WiknerSanskrit10-Upright      <skt10.pfb

But `skt10.pfb' identifies itself as `skt10' and not as
`WiknerSanskrit10-Upright':
  /FontName /skt10 def
(on line 23)

This is not the case in the CTAN package:
  /FontName /WiknerSanskrit10-Upright def

To correct this, two solutions, I guess:
- fix the font names in the `skt.map' file, reverting for instance to:
    skt10 skt10 <skt10.pfb
- or update the type1 fonts with the correct version found in the
  upstream CTAN package (my preferred solution).

I have tried both of them, and they appear to fix the problem.

Thank you!
