You shouldn't have done that. These directories are under dpkg's
control, and there are a couple of packages that put files there but do
not depend on tetex-* (either because they just Recommend or Suggest it,
or in one case, texinfo, because (currently) tetex-base depends on it).
You should do
dpkg -S usr/share/texmf/ | egrep -v 'tetex-base|tetex-bin|tetex-extra' | cut -d ':' -f 1 | sort -u
and then for each package this lists:
apt-get --reinstall install <package>

That I knew. There must have been a bug in some old version that
existed months ago. So for your system all is well; but I think we'll
have to find a way to remove fmtutil.cnf and updmap.cfg from
TEXMFMAIN/web2c if we find them there. To all, are there more files I
should care for?
