Dear Douglas, I am another user who had scalable-cyrfonts-tex installed on his Debian boxes. I also faced the impossibility to upgrade texlive-* packages without removing scalable-cyrfonts-tex. In short, I concluded that I can now write LaTeX documents with Cyrillic characters, without using scalable-cyrfonts-tex: to do this, I use utf8 inputenc (thus typing Cyrillic UTF8 characters directly into the LaTeX source code) and obtain vector (Type 1) fonts, thanks to the cm-super Debian package. You may find more detailed information in bug #593448 . I hope this helps.
