As a test, I ignored this warning and just installed context
and tex-common normally.  Tested OK.  I then purged and
reinstalled context.  Tested OK.

I wouldn't worry to much about trimming a few seconds off of
mktexlsr.  The install now spends several minutes apparently
rebuilding formats in half a dozen languages.  Generates rather
more output than is typical for a debian package install.

Fourth bullet of "man texexec" has typo " from com{ConTeXt} source".

Man page still says dvips output is the default but pdftex output
is now the default.

All tests ran fine both times:
   texexec hello
   texexec --dvi hello
   dvips hello
   texexec mytest
   texexec --dvi mytest
   dvips mytest
   texexec pdftex-t
   texexec --mode=letter pdftex-t
   pdffonts pdftex-t

Looking good,
