I found a way to solve this: I just de-installed all tetex-packages and
packages that depend on them. Then I installed them back but I installed
cm-super by hand to /usr/local/share/texmf and not as Debian-package.

I have a file cat /etc/texmf/updmap.d/99local.cfg and it looks like
this:

Map bera.map
Map cm-lgc.map
Map hfbright.map
Map uaq.map
Map ugq.map
Map webo.map

MixedMap cm-super-t1.map
MixedMap cm-super-ts1.map
MixedMap cm-super-t2a.map
MixedMap cm-super-t2b.map
MixedMap cm-super-t2c.map
MixedMap cm-super-x2.map

Map juhtolv.map

That file /etc/texmf/dvips/juhtolv.map has just one line:

Well, no, not exactly. Indeed the debian directory of the cm-super fonts
will not work properly, and even the updmap --enable trick is at least
problematic. But still it is a bug in our package that we didn't
preserve your local configuration, as it worked before the upgrade.

I'm working on a fix, hopefully also in sarge.
