Some failure happened some time when the MAP files were created from  
their fragments. The labm3583 font entry comes from the cm-super- 
t2a.map MAP file fragment, possibly in the /usr/local/texlive/2008/ 
texmf-dist/fonts/map/dvips/cm-super directory. The frummt font entry  
is from the allrunes.map MAP file fragment, possibly in the /usr/ 
local/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/fonts/map/dvips/allrunes directory.

The cure is quite simple: renew the MAP files! This can take many  
minutes and during this time you should not run TeX (and no-one else  
on this computer!), so you best should leave for lunch. The command is:

	sudo -H updmap-sys --disable allrunes.map && sudo -H updmap-sys -- 
enable MixedMap=allrunes.map

The sudo command on your PC may take other parameters, it might be  
that it does not work and you'll have to use su.

The first 'disable' command will already rebuild the defective MAP  
files. If you can live without the mappings for rune fonts, the  
second command can be left out. You can also disable any other MAP  
file fragment. 'updmap --listmaps' will show all MAP file fragments  
known to updmap/updmap-sys.

We don't know yet what the output of 'kpsewhich pdftex.map' is. If  
it's a pathname like /usr/local/texlive/2008/texmf-var/fonts/map/ 
pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map then the command line given above is  
correct. If it contains something like /home/<your login  
id>/.texlive2008/..., then you are using a set of private MAP files.  
Their cure is:

	updmap --disable allrunes.map && updmap --enable MixedMap=allrunes.map

No sudo, no su, no -sys. Again, the first command will already cure  
your installation and you can disable (or enable) any other MAP file  
fragment.
