Details

I’ve recently realized that some fonts had disappeared in the latest texlive-core update, and this makes enblend-enfuse fail to build.

Indeed, when trying to compile enblend-enfuse 4.2 from source, with all the required dependencies for the documentation, it fails at LaTeX compilation with the following message:

```
LaTeX Font Info: Font shape `OT1/cmr/bx/sc' in size <24.88> not available
(Font) Font shape `OT1/cmr/b/sc' tried instead on input line 10.
./common-fdl.tex:10: Font OT1/cmr/bx/sc/24.88=cmbcsc10 at 24.88pt not loadable:
Metric (TFM) file not found.
<to be read again>
relax
l.10 ...NU} Free Documentation License\commonpart}
```

When looking a bit above I’ve found this block at the beginning of the compilation:
```
kpathsea: Running mktextfm cmbcsc10
mktextfm: Running mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1; nonstopmode; input cmbcsc10
This is METAFONT, Version 2.7182818 (TeX Live 2017/Arch Linux) (preloaded base=mf)

kpathsea: Running mktexmf cmbcsc10

```

Apparently the font was recently removed from the texlive-core package:

Looking upstream (TeX-Live) I’ve realised that this is because the fonts were moved but the new ones were not included:
https://tug.org/svn/texlive?view=revision&revision=45796

Could you fix that please?

Can you please provide a small sample document that fails to compile ?
