Ok, I retitled the bug and removed the wontfix stuff. If I find time I
will implement it.

If you check for the existence of TeX files in the package being built
and don't run mktexlsr in case there is no TeX file, this is in
general short-sighted and incorrect.
*WARNING* *WARNING* *WARNING* *WARNING* *WARNING* *WARNING* *WARNING*
Reason: if there were TeX files in any previous version of the package
(up to the previous Debian release), then mktexlsr *has* to be run.
People always complain about cheap stuff being run unnecessarily, but
then they will also complain when hell breaks because the cheap stuff
was so wisely not run...
If there is nothing TeX-related in your package, don't run
dh_installtex...
