Bug#438015: texlive-latex-base: Setup fails when running fmtutil-sys

[Raphael Manfredi <Raphael_Manfredi@pobox.com>]

Quoting Atsuhito Kohda:
: what happend if you run 
: "sh -x /var/lib/dpkg/info/texlive-common.postinst configure"

I get:

+ for i in updmap.d/10tetex-base.cfg fmt.d/01tetex.cnf language.d/00tetex.cnf language.d/10tetex.cnf
+ '[' -r /etc/texmf/updmap.d/10tetex-base.cfg ']'

+ '[' -r /etc/texmf/language.d/10tetex.cnf ']'
+ exit 0

And now the install succeeds!!

So for some reason, postinst was not invoked correctly during the install
process.  Maybe because of earlier failures and wrong dpkg status information?

Thanks for your help anyway.
