Hi Wookey,
thanks for that report. Interesting... I tried to reproduce
it without success, but I just called
apt-get install texlive-xetex texlive-latex-base
texlive-generic-recommended texlive-fonts-recommended lmodern
instead, though (the build-deps of rustc).

Do you have the *full* log available by chance?
I might be a race between trigger invocationa dn proper postinst configure
invocation, but I am not sure.
There are two triggers involved:
* texmf-map triggered via the lmodern.postinst via update-texmf-config map
* file trigger on /usr/share/texmf interest by tex-common
Now the only possible szenario I can imagine is:
* two triggers are pending (the above)
* dpkg calls tex-common's postinst with *only* the texmf-map trigger
* and later with the file trigger
I am checking already on all passed in triggers, so it must be
that the posinst is invoked two times for triggers.
I don't have any other explanation.
The solution is unfortunately not nice, because it would create
another set of mktexlsr calls for *each* trigger of a map/fmt,
which is exactly what I wanted to get rid off when switching
to triggers.
So long blabla cut short - if you have the full log, please send
it to me (output of dpkg/apt is fine).
Thanks
Norbert
