As dlocate does not find it it was not brought in by dpkg but was
rather generated. In the moment I don't remember if the user can
deselect to generate that file. If not (and the generated file should
actually sit in /var/lib/texmf/web2c/) this is a file from an old
installation.
I guess we should simply remove it. As the submitter already purged
the old installation we can't do dig further into this.
Arne is it to close this bug then?
