Bug Description

Binary package hint: texlive-base

I got this when trying to set the default paper size from letter to a4:

$ texconfig paper a4
texconfig: paper `A4size' not found in file `/etc/texmf/dvips/config/config.ps'

After changing "a4size" to "A4size" in line 85 of the mentioned file, everything worked fine:

$ texconfig paper a4
texconfig: updated configuration saved as file `/home/erik/.texmf-config/dvips/config/config.ps'
