I had lmodern installed (I thought it was purged but it wasn't), but
purging it makes no difference. texlive-fontsrecommended is installed.

Now with lmodern purge, all texlive packages installed (except
languages and documentation) a simple document with T1-encoding and
lmodern:
\documentclass{minimal}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{lmodern}
\begin{document}
This is a test.
\end{document}

But my original point with this item was that without texlive-binextra
installed the above would also fail because gsftopk is in that package
and therefore missing. But I guess that we will never need gsftopk if
the other problem is fixed(?)

And also when you want to use pdflatex on the document.

It just seems confusing that mathpazo.sty is in texlive-latex; the
.pfb-files in texlive-fontsextra and texlive-fontsrecommended; and if
you want the "real" small caps (the sc-option to mathpazo) you also
need texlive-mathextra.
As a user I would expect to have all the functionality of the mathpazo
package installed (including the actual fonts) when I have the
.sty-file (on the other hand TeX Live probably also ships .sty-files
without fonts for commercial fonts and that is okay with me ...).
But this seems more of a TeX Live question than a Debian packaging
question.

This problem appears to be the same as the one mention in 3.
A thing with your newest upload. I just had texlive-langother
installed and purged (just to see what languages where in there).
Formats doesn't get rebuild by this package (and I guess the other
language packages as well) so hyphenation patterns are not
added/removed from the formats on install/purge.
Keep up the good work!
