How about:

Description: Remove old conffiles?
  Old conffiles from a previous version of tetex-base were found.
  Most of these were map files for dvips and now removed from the
  upstream source.
  .
  If you think you have modified such files, then you may refuse this
  option and preserve them.  You can find the list of such conffiles
  in /var/lib/dpkg/info/tetex-base.config but, for almost 99% of you,
  it is strongly recommended to remove these files right now!
