I got an error when trying to build a PDF document from a Tex file.

After I track this problem for while, found that three mapping files of 'thailatex' package,
in /usr/share/texmf/fonts/map/dvips/tlwg,
were wrong refer to the 'lthuni.enc' file.

To solve the problem, just revise those files.
Let they point to new destination of 'lthuni.enc', /usr/share/texmf/fonts/enc/dvips/thai/lthuni.enc.
Then, command
> sudo updmap-sys
 That's all.

ps. the revised *.map were attached.

The bug should belong to latex-fonts-thai-tlwg.

And I don't think putting absolute path in the map file is neccessary. 'kpathsea' can do the file search for you, given that the target file is properly installed in one of its search paths.

I guess latex-fonts-thai-tlwg in 12.04 is 1:0.4.17-1ubuntu1, right? Let's check if the Ubuntu-specific patch has done the job correctly. (I am the Debian maintainer, not Ubuntu. That's all I can comment.)
