COULD YOU PLEASE START READING WHAT WE ARE WRITING?

texlive-base's postrm, upon REMOVE, uses a command from tex-common, on
which it already DEPENDS. This is allowed by policy.

The fact that in this particular chroot, texlive-base was installed
without tex-common being installed, or even unpacked, is NOT A BUG OF
tex-common. 

It seems it is a bug of policy, or dpkg.
