First thing: the 74 debdiffs you uploaded seem to work fine with
tex-filter-debdiff.py.

As for your packages, I tried to upgrade from teTeX and got:

Unpacking texlive-font-utils (from .../texlive-font-utils_2007-1~1_all.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/texlive-font-utils_2007-1~1_all.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite `/usr/bin/ttf2pk', which is also in package freetype1-tools
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)

After removing freetype1-tools, things went fine and I could compile a
few documents of mine, except one that needs SIunits.sty.

% kpsewhich SIunits.sty
% apt-file search SIunits.sty
tetex-extra: usr/share/texmf-tetex/tex/latex/SIunits/SIunits.sty
texlive-latex-extra: usr/share/texmf-texlive/tex/latex/SIunits/SIunits.sty
% dpkg -L texlive-latex-extra | grep SIunits
% dpkg -l texlive-latex-extra

So, SIunits.sty seems to have vanished from texlive-latex-extra between
TL 2006 and TL 2007.

Thanks!
