I don't really have an explanation. However, we do *not* have sufficiently strict Depends to force the upgrade of tex-common before we try to create formats. texlive-common requires tex-common >= 1.4, and texlive-base-bin (for example) only requires texlive-common > 2007. I'm not sure what texlive and tex-common versions feisty had, but if I assume it resembles sarge (tex-common 1.0*), *then* I do not have an explanation.
