I've noticed that, too.  I thought I had properly catered for the
renaming:

# The groupname question has been split up, but it need not be shown again
db_fget tex-common/groupname seen || true
if [ "$RET" = true ]; then
 db_fset tex-common/groupname_single seen true || true
 db_fset tex-common/groupname_multi seen true || true
fi
db_unregister tex-common/groupname || true

Does anybody see what's wrong with that?  If it is run a second time
(e.g. once before unpacking, once by postinst), it should just do
nothing, because $RET is not true.

Regards, Frank
