Can you reproduce the bug, i.e. does it occur again?  If yes, then
please edit /var/lib/dpkg/info/tetex-bin.postinst, so that the first
line is changed from

#!/bin/sh -e

to 

#!/bin/sh -ex

and then try again, but redirect the output and stderr into a file, like
this:

dpkg --configure -a 2>&1 | tee tetex-bin.log


Furthermore, did you see Marc's posting where he reported which packages
depend on tetex?  It would be good if you could compare which of them
are also installed on your system.
