No, it's maintained by debconf, which helds it's data in /var/cache.
Sorry, my statement yesterday was wrong: language.dat should be in
/etc. I made actually a fresh tetex-installation in my UML and I've
seen language.dat in /etc/texmf. So everything is correct. Sorry to
debian-tetex-maint for the confusion.

Well, eurosans.sty seems to be missing too. Both are not contained in
upstream teTeX and hence not in Debian. We should ask Thomas to
include them, if the license is compatible to the DFSG.
