I have purged tetex-{base,bin,extra} again and manually removed
/usr/share/texmf and /etc/texmf/. Apologies for overlooking them so far.
After reinstalling tetex-{base,bin} the spurious
/usr/share/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg file did _not_ reappear. Next
I installed tetex-extra which as usual reproduced the deficient
/var/lib/texmf/dvips/config/psfonts_t1.map file. The following
updmap.* files are now present:
/var/lib/texmf/web2c/updmap.cfg
/usr/share/man/man1/updmap.1.gz
/usr/share/tetex-base/updmap.cfg
Ciao,
Arne
