Concatenating all the texmf.d/* parts into one file, then using ucf to
merge changes you have made to texmf.cnf into the new one.

So bottom line, if you didn't change anything of importance, remove
/etc/texmf/texmf.cnf, then call as root update-texmf, that should create
a texmf.cnf file with trie_size set to 4000000.
