I did not knew this. 

In any case, this does not seem excluded completely from setup.ini
(or .hint):

  1) there is 'ec-fonts-mftraced' that depend on -tiny;


  2)  also 'tetex' depend on -tiny and ldesc says 

     "...This virtual tetex package will install tetex-bin and tetex-tiny,
     the minimal working teTeX setup.  It is advised to install tetex-base
     too. If you have plenty of bandwith, find the rest of teTeX in
     tetex-extra and tetex-doc."

So I am confused: to install TeTeX completely, which package should be
selected and which NO?

Should we 'ping' the TeTeX maintainer?

When I saw the same postinstall to be included in more than a package, I
suspected that something was wrong.

Now with your dettailed explanation, more things are enlightened.



Thanks,
