Then I installed the TL package one by one: tex-common, texlive-common texlive-binaries, luatex, texlive-doc-base, texlive-base. Between every package I checked if /usr/local/share/texmf/ is still empty and right: after installing texlive-base there is /usr/local/share/texmf/ls-R !! No, I can't see any other call for mktexlsr than this one: "mktexlsr /usr/share/texmf /var/lib/texmf /usr/share/texmf-texlive" and it definitely does not create /usr/local/share/texmf/ls-R . I'm afraid we have to go through texlive-base.postinst step by step and check, which step creates the file. Maybe it is even the preinst step, but it doesn't look that way. Just my 2 Cent.
