Why is it not owned by any package then? $ dpkg -S /etc/texmf/dvipdfm/config dpkg: /etc/texmf/dvipdfm/config not found. The same applies to the other files which are still used/accessible. I find this particularly strange for /etc/texmf/dvips/config.download35 and /etc/texmf/dvips/config.builtin35. The former belongs to tetex-base, the latter does not belong anywhere.
