Sorry, this should have had a smiley...

No, since tex-common doesn't handle update-texmf.  The problem seems to
be that the postinst assumes that this file is obsolete:

    if [ -f /etc/texmf/texmf.d/96JadeTeX ]; then
	warn "removing old texmf.d config snippet"
	rm /etc/texmf/texmf.d/96JadeTeX
    fi

But somehow the file is still there:

# dpkg -S /etc/texmf/texmf.d/96JadeTeX.cnf 
jadetex: /etc/texmf/texmf.d/96JadeTeX.cnf
root@riesling:/# dpkg -l jadetex
