I think I found the problem. I always thought that the issue was in 
texlive-texmf-2021 having files wrongly cased compared to what was 
listed in its updmap.cfg. That's why we have the perl-pie in PatchScrpt 
to make them match.
However, the problem seems to be that the files changed case between 
texlive-texmf-2017 and texlive-texmf-2021. In both cases, they're listed 
correctly *for their version* in updmap.cfg

This is not a problem in case-sensitive systems, becase AlgolRevived.map 
is not the same as algolrevived.map, and the file will be replaced upon 
upgrading. However, in a case insensitive system (most macOS installs), 
a new package carrying AlgolRevived.map will install the file as 
algolrevivied.map if the file already exists in the lowercase mode.

So the fix needs to be to make sure the files that changed case are 
truly replaced and not just overwritten. Working on that.
