This package has adopted again the old /usr/doc   structure :-(
                                            info
                                            man

You mean tetex-base, right ?

In a default installation in /usr/share/texmf/web2c/texmf.cnf there is the following line:

VARTEXFONTS = /var/cache/fonts

and in /usr/share/texmf/web2c/mktex.cnf:

: ${MT_FEATURES=appendonlydir:varfonts}

Shouldn't than this package create the /var/cache/fonts directory
instead of /var/spool/texmf as it is now ?

Although tetex-x11 has some bogus empty dirs:
/usr/X11R6/share/man/man1
/usr/X11R6/man/man1
/usr/X11R6/lib
