No, it's a bug in our postinst scripts. The file is under ucf control
instead of dpkg's, because we have taken it over from the (vanished)
texdoctk package. Up to version 3.0-11, we had many more files under
ucf control, but this is no longer necessary, and instead of dropping
the "many more" files, we simply dropped the whole piece of code and
forgot about texdocrc.
It will be fixed in the next upload; thanks for reporting.
Regards, Frank
