True, but do we really want to remove it? It might help in some cases
where *other* packages forgot to call in upon removal etc?

It doesn't hurt to call all of them.
So is it only for aestethic reasons of the output, or are your seriously
concerned that these 3 programs are always called?
OTOH, the time intense stuff (updmap-sys, fmtutil-sys) is ONLY called if
necessary, only the three update-* are called unconditionally.
BTW, they are also called in the postinst script, but there without the
error checking.
So let's rephrase it:
Wishlist: Create a new dhit_ function which calls the argument progs and
only in error case outputs something.
WOuld this be ok?
Best wishes
Norbert
