[tex-live] Pscryrliic Fonts for TeXLive

[Ivan]

Hi Edd, 

I have encountered the same problem (livetex + pscyr) in Ubuntu linux.
The problem is that pdflatex does not see the font due to incorrect 
pscyr installation.
To solve the problem, I used the following installation script:
(as root)

FTP=ftp://ftp.vsu.ru/pub/tex/font-packs/pscyr/0.4d-beta/
#FTP=ftp://scon155.phys.msu.su/pub/russian/psfonts/0.4d-beta/
wget -c $FTP/PSCyr-0.4-beta9-tex.tar.gz
wget -c $FTP/PSCyr-0.4-beta9-type1.tar.gz
tar -xvzf PSCyr-0.4-beta9-tex.tar.gz
tar -xvzf PSCyr-0.4-beta9-type1.tar.gz 

cd PSCyr

cd to the directory where PSCyr is unpacked)
for a in tfm vf type1 afm; do
   cp -r fonts/$a/public/pscyr /usr/share/texmf-texlive/fonts/$a/public/
done
cp -r tex/latex/pscyr /usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/
cp -r dvips/pscyr/ /usr/share/texmf-texlive/dvips/

mktexlsr

## the following is the key point to solve the problem being discussed:
echo -e "\n# PSCyr\nMap pscyr.map\n" >> /var/lib/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg       
updmap-sys

This worked for me.
