It is *very* strange.

THis convolute of unreadable bunch? I tried quite some time
to get something useful out of it, without success.

I checked the postinst of texlive-base, and what happens is in principle:
TEXMFTREES="/usr/share/texmf /var/lib/texmf"
if (something happens) then
TEXMFTREES="$TEXMFTREES /usr/share/texmf-texlive"
fi
mktexlsr $TEXMFTREES
---
then it triggers some actions in tex-common, and tex-common in turn
it self contains more or less the same code as above.
SO I have *NO* idea where it comes from.
Can you easily check if the ls-R file in /u/l/s/texmf is presetn
*after* the installation, but *before* the purge?
It is a mystery where it comes from.
Is it possible to tell piuparts to execute between every step a
command (ls /usr/local/share/temxf) so that we see when it comes
into existence?
Best wishes
