Wrong. The TeX Live Manager is *not* shipped with Debian, thus it will
not be shipped with Ubuntu neither.

The reason is that tlmgr would interfere with the packaging infrastructure
of Debian/Ubuntu.

OTOH, we might now update the TL package in more regular intervals
rebasing them on current svn snapshots of upstream.

On another hand (how many do I have), if I find time and finally
complete the implementation of TeX Live Manager User Mode, so that
tlmgr can be used to manage TEXMFHOME (installation/upgrade etc)
that would help, too.

Best wishes

Norbert
