There's something new: Upon upgrading from etch+texlive, I get

Unpacking replacement texlive-base-bin ...
dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/texlive-base-bin_2007-8_i386.deb (--unpack):
 trying to overwrite `/usr/share/man/man1/thumbpdf.1.gz', which is also in package texlive-pdfetex
dpkg-deb: subprocess paste killed by signal (Broken pipe)

Also, the xdvi.cfg stuff is still not working:

cp: cannot stat `/etc/texmf/xdvi/xdvi.cfg': No such file or directory
dpkg: error while cleaning up:
 subprocess post-removal script returned error exit status 1

That's obviously the error-unwind process calling postrm.
Unfortunately, Debian policy doesn't seem to document which arguments
are used in this case (or am I blind?).
