For people affectés by this issue, you may try following procédure :
   - download the tex-common package
      $ aptitude download tex-common
   - unpack the deb package
      $ dpkg-deb -R tex-common_6.04_all.deb fixfolder
   - fix the postinst script in fixfolder/DEBIAN by removing the faulty 
parametrer  :--no-error-if-no-engine=luajittex (3 occurrences to remove) or 
replace it by the fixed script joined in previous post
    - rebuid the package
      $ dpkg-deb -b fixfolder fixed-tex-common.deb
    - remove previous bugged installation and installation fixed
      $ sudo dpkg --force-all -r tex-common && sudo dpkg -i fixed-tex-common.deb

It worked like a charm for me, but the faulty parametrer may have been
there for some cases...
