Hi Hilmar, thanks for testing.

I guess that texconfig* kpse* etc need to be deleted, but things like e2pall etc aren't? So I don't want to blindly add rm -f, and I need to delete those files that are shipped in the nonarch packages, so I cannot blindly remove the whole part. Don't worry if you have no time, I will build by hand and check for the files in due time.
