tex-common 0.11 is already out so my reaction comes to late. Sorry!
The only thing I've found: You write: "subsequently create
the format with fmtutil --byfmt format.". Perhaps it would be a
better idea to call "fmtutil --missing" at this point to make sure
all formats defined in the new fmtutil.cnf are created. Yes,
eventually it will create formats required by other package than the
package actually getting installed.
Further we should mention anywhere, that a package should remove the
format files it has created upon purge (or remove?).
