Comment:

 OK, yeah, this is still a problem.  I just tried to uninstall it on my
 machine using apt-get so aptitude wouldn't try and be clever, and it fails
 with the same error geofft had -- being unable to find pdftexconfig.tex.
 Which we do divert.  On my machine, I think the uninstallation comes from
 the fact that I only have a pdftexconfig.tex.dpkg-new and
 pdftexconfig.tex.debathena.  But no debathena-orig.  So when tex-config is
 uninstalled, there's no symlink.  It's unclear what caused this.

 At this point, I'm more interested in cleaning up correctly.  Suggestions?
