It's supposed to describe the TeX installation on the local system. So
it would have to be created dynamically at install time depending on
which packages have been installed. Still, debian usually does that
well.

I have installed all the TeX and latex stuff I can think of (and find
via apt-cache search) that looks reasonable.
