Bug#426749: texlive-base-bin: no quick removal

[Dan Jacobson <jidanni@jidanni.org>]

Package: texlive-base-bin
Version: 2007-7
Severity: wishlist

One notices that
$ apt-get --purge remove texlive-base-bin
takes so long because it does
  Running 'mktexlsr /usr/share/texmf /var/lib/texmf /usr/share/texmf-texlive'.
  This may take some time... done.
  Running 'updmap-sys'.
  This may take some time...
for each dependency, without even noticing that in the end we plan to
throw out the results and tools to make those results anyway.

P.S.,
dpkg - warning: while removing texlive-base-bin, directory
`/etc/texmf/dvips' not empty so not removed.

  /etc/texmf/dvips:
  total used in directory 71 available 48523
  drwxr-xr-x  2 root  3072 2007-05-30 14:40 .
  drwxr-xr-x 12 root  1024 2007-05-30 14:40 ..

  -rw-r--r--  1 root 51065 2005-05-16 03:10 uhc-base.map

So I did by hand: rm -r /etc/texmf/dvips
