Summary0001011: MetaPost uses psfonts.map, which fails when embedding fonts when dvipsPreferOutline is false
DescriptionWhen "dvipsPreferOutline false" is used in updmap.cfg
and MetaPost is embedding the fonts (prologues:=3;), it looks
into psfonts.map, which makes it fail with this error:

    Warning: font cmr10 cannot be found in any fontmapfile!

$ cat /usr/local/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg
dvipsPreferOutline false

$ ls -l /var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/updmap/psfonts.map
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Aug 27 14:09 /var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/updmap/psfonts.map -> psfonts_pk.map

$ grep cm.map /usr/share/texlive/texmf-dist/web2c/updmap.cfg
MixedMap cm.map
Steps To Reproduce$ mpost -rec test
$ cat test.fls
INPUT /var/lib/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/updmap/psfonts.map
Additional InformationMetaPost normally uses pdftex.map. But sometimes it uses psfonts.map.
TagsNo tags attached.

Use the fontmapfile and fontmapline commands in metapost if your psfonts.map
  cannot be trusted to contain the lines you need.

See section 8.2 in the metapost manual.
