We have simply forgotten to add the line in postrm. Here's a patch:

There's only one corner case where this would be annoying: If /usr/local
is shared among different systems in the network, we're blowing away
ls-R for all systems, even if others still have TeX installed.
An alternative approach would be to move ls-R out of the way, and then
do
if ! rmdir /u/l/s/texmf/ 2>/dev/null; then
mv $backup /u/l/s/texmf/ls-R
fi
However, where should we put it?
