Could TeXlive be split in a core debian package which embeds (physically 
contains binary code) of the core of TeXlive plus ancillary packages (like it 
does now, say texlive-publishers) which are meta-packages that call tlmgr in 
the post-install script, just like the flash-player package just downloads and 
then installs form adobe website?
The new packages would be much easier to maintain.
The only problem I see is that you need an internet connection (no cd).
