texconfig is very strict with its tests, and refuses to run without
necessity, IMO. This has triggered an installation bug in Debian, see

http://bugs.debian.org/237060

and

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=237060&msg=53

(the start is very Debian-specific, until we found the cause). I didn't
have time to bother Thomas more about this, especially because I also
wouldn't have time to help in coding.
