At some point, you were prompted via an alert to install GPG. It has a checkbox option for users who are afraid to install it and don't want to be nagged each time TLU launches. You apparently checked the box to never see that warning again (though it will be reset for TL 2019).

You need to reset it in Terminal:

defaults delete com.googlecode.mactlmgr.tlu TLMDisableGPGAlertPreferenceKey

The alert will read "This version of TeX Live allows you to check the digital signature of downloaded packages by installing GnuPG. For better security, you should enable this feature."

Sorry I can't help with updmap stuff, as I've never understood the proper incantations for the different trees. Norbert can probably decipher it easily:
