Oops, sorry, I misread the URL for the Source0 link.  My bad.

The latter.  updmap-sys updates updmap.cfg which lists the active map files.  

In my system, musix.map is currently commented out in updmap.cfg, so it will
not be read.  I suspect that in your system the line musix.map is present in
your updmap.cfg either through custom editing or from a manual musixtex
install.  We must also care of removing (or commenting out) that line when
uninstalling.


> Do I have to call updmap-sys once for each map file?

No, we don't actually call updmap-sys to update the map files, but to point out
that a map file called musix.map exists in the respective directories (be they
dvips or dvipdfm is irrelevant).

I suspect that in your system the line musix.map is present in your updmap.cfg
either through custom editing or from a manual musixtex install.  We must also
care of removing (or commenting out) that line when uninstalling.
