Hello,
I must admit, I am pretty annoyed with TeX on my system, because I simply do
not need it, and more and more packages depend on it.
But I have chosen to ignore this problem, which is not that easy, because
ever so often I get an update of all those zillion tex related packages,
which is survive.
But currently I am quite annoyed about all those questions I got asked.
Especially stuff like this:
Configuration file /etc/texmf/texmf.d/05TeXMF.cnf'
==> File on system created by you or by a script.
==> File also in package provided by package maintainer.
What would you like to do about it ? Your options are:
Y or I : install the package maintainer's version
N or O : keep your currently-installed version
D : show the differences between the versions
Z : background this process to examine the situation
The default action is to keep your current version.
*** 05TeXMF.cnf (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ? d

i am very sure, I did never have touched this file, so why is dpkg always
asking me if i want to overwrite it? IS this a dpkg problem, is it a
packaging problem, or is is a script which is modifying those files?
