Hmm, precisely it should be shown first

  The metafont program can store fonts generated by users running xdvi, dvips,
  etc. so they need not be re-generated repeatedly.  They are stored in
  /var/lib/texmf and /var/cache/fonts, with "ls-R" file lists showing where the
  font files are stored.
 
  Answering `yes' here will allow you to easily manage the permissions of those
  ls-R files using debconf.

but it might be preconfiguring stage, that is, might be very 
early stage of dist-upgrading.

I tried on my system and certainly saw this message first.
