[tex-live] Update problem

[Robert B. Gozzoli]

Dear Norbert,
Map mdsymbol.map is the last line in the updmap.cfg.

And this is the resulting updmap.log after I forced to recreate it.

I believe now it is working, but just for the future, in case
something like this happens again. Is it more practical to delete the
actual installation and do a new installation, or forcing to recreate
updmap is enough?

Thanks,

Robert
