texlive-collection-basic requires Perl to be removed

- Subject: texlive-collection-basic requires Perl to be removed
This package contains this file:
/etc/preremove/texlive-collection-basic.sh
which in turn calls:
/usr/libexec/update_tlpdb
which is a Perl script. I understand that "texlive-collection-basic" requires
"perl_base", but if a user removed Perl first then uninstallation of texlive
would fail. Perhaps "update_tlpdb" could be rewritten as a shell script.
