Mantén la separación build-indep/build-arch como la has hecho.

Mueve texlive, texlive-latex-base, y posiblemente gs-common de
Build-Depends a Build-Depends-Indep.

En build-indep, añade un test para que sólo se "compile" la
documentación si TeX está instalado, por ejemplo:

  if [ -x /usr/bin/pdflatex ]; then
      $(MAKE) doc
  fi

Es la manera "recomendada" hasta que se arregle ese bug al que te
refieres sobre los make targets que debe invocar dpkg-buildpackage -B.

HTH,
