The preremove script will remove that file if it's unchanged from the
default.  So that part seems to have worked.

The postinstall script should have reinstated that file as a copy from
/etc/defaults/etc/man_db.conf.  Can you check if you've got an error in
/var/log/setup.log.full from /etc/postinstall/man-db.sh and what it was?
You should be able to re-install man-db to have that script run again.

Achim.
