texlive pretest: updmap under Windows in an auxtree doesn't work

[Keks Dose]

With Ulrikes help I got it sorted out.

The auxiliary tree contains a file »libertine.map«. texlive as well comes with a map file called »libertine.map«. So I had the »clever« idea to tell updmap-sys to enable the auxiliary tree map file and gave the full path.

Two errors: 

(1) no need to give the full path, becaus the auxiliary tree has priority over the texmf-dist tree

(2) libertine.map already has been enabled by updmap-sys

So the simple solution would have been to add the auxiliary tree and then simply 'updmap-sys' .

OK, _but_ unfortunately my misguided attempts lead to the result, that in c:/texlive/2019/texmf-config/web2c/updmap.cfg the libertine.map had been registered with full path and updmap did not like that. After deleting those lines from updmap.cfg, updmap-sys worked as expected:

I tested the auxtree and it worked as I expected.

So my issue is solved. Many thanks to Ulrike and you all for a new version of texlive!

Kind regards,
