When I run the postinst script from the command line, it works, when it's run by dpkg, it doesn't work. Not sure what's happening here.

Bug#648278: texlive-base fails to install
I had the same bug. I did not run env, but did run kpsewhich before running
# mktexlsr /usr/share/texmf
Which allowed the install to finish successfully.
Thanks,
Ron

This is very strange. Can you send the output of running
env
as root.
Furthermore, can you send the output of
kpsewhich -debug=-1 tcfmgr.map 2>&1
> Interestingly, I can find a tcfmgr.map file in /usr/share/texmf/texconfig:

Yes, that is not the problem. It is that it cannot be found.
Can you run *AFTER* you have done the above,
mktexlsr /usr/share/texmf
and retry to configure texlive-base
Best wishes

A street dance. The two partners approach from opposite directions and
try politely to get out of each other's way. They step to the left,
step to the right, apologise, step to the left again, apologise again,
bump into each other and repeat as often as unnecessary.

Bug#648278: texlive-base fails to install
Package: texlive-base Version: 2009-14 Justification: renders package unusable Severity: grave Dear Maintainer, *** Please consider answering these questions, where appropriate *** * What led up to the situation? * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? * What was the outcome of this action? * What outcome did you expect instead? *** End of the template - remove these lines *** During a system upgrade, my LaTeX infrastructure failed to upgrade, causing the upgrade to block. In the interest of getting everything else upgraded, I uninstalled the blocking packages. Now, when trying to re-install, I am getting the same warnings. The texlive-base package fails to install due to a missing configuration file. The diagnostic error output is: # dpkg --configure texlive-base Setting up texlive-base (2009-14) ... tcfmgr: config file `tcfmgr.map' (usually in $TEXMFMAIN/texconfig) not found. tcfmgr: config file `tcfmgr.map' (usually in $TEXMFMAIN/texconfig) not found. tcfmgr: config file `tcfmgr.map' (usually in $TEXMFMAIN/texconfig) not found. tcfmgr: config file `tcfmgr.map' (usually in $TEXMFMAIN/texconfig) not found. tcfmgr: config file `tcfmgr.map' (usually in $TEXMFMAIN/texconfig) not found. dpkg: error processing texlive-base (--configure): subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1 Errors were encountered while processing: texlive-base Interestingly, I can find a tcfmgr.map file in /usr/share/texmf/texconfig: # ls -l /usr/share/texmf/texconfig/tcfmgr.map -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 401 Jul 26 2008 /usr/share/texmf/texconfig/tcfmgr.map So far, I haven't done much to try to resolve this issue, but am happy to assist trying to resolve this. -- Package-specific info: If you report an error when running one of the TeX-related binaries (latex, pdftex, metafont,...), or if the bug is related to bad or wrong output, please include a MINIMAL example input file that produces the error in your report. Please run your example with (pdf)latex -recorder ... (or any other program that supports -recorder) and send us the generated file with the extension .fls, it lists all the files loaded during the run and can easily explain problems induced by outdated files in your home directory. Don't forget to also include minimal examples of other files that are needed, e.g. bibtex databases. Often it also helps to include the logfile. Please, never send included pictures! If your example file isn't short or produces more than one page of output (except when multiple pages are needed to show the problem), you can probably minimize it further.
