The most important part of Kevin's message is quoted below:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
I wrote a script that automatically does what I spent a long time doing
by hand last night, that is, determining which TeXLive package ships
each of the files in the tetex-* packages.

The script is here:

http://people.debian.org/~kmccarty/tetex-to-texlive-mapping/tetex-to-texlive.sh

and its output (one report per teTeX package) here:

http://people.debian.org/~kmccarty/tetex-to-texlive-mapping/

For each file, the report includes the TeXLive package containing it,
and flags indicating whether the file contents or the file path differ
(modulo s/texmf-tetex/texmf-texlive/) between teTeX and TexLive.  Files
that were not found in any TeXLive package are also reported.  Only
regular files are considered; symlinks and directories are ignored.  See
the explanatory remarks at the top of each report for more details.
