Comment:
There is nothing the system texlive does that cannot be done with `texlive-bin`, apart from integration with other packages. System texlive has a number of advantages anyway. Usecases I see for tlmgr in system texlive include:

1. User-specific packages on a multi-user system.
2. Installing CTAN packages we do not provide (there are a few).
3. Installing parts of packages we provide without pulling in the entire massive package such as fontsextra.

I do not see this being used as a root-wide, i.e. not installing to `/usr/share/texmf-dist`, only for `~/texmf` (user mode). `tlmgr` is also responsible for a couple of configuration options, such as default paper size.

Perhaps we should also patch tlmgr like Debian to only support usermode `tlmgr`, as that is the only usecase we should be supporting. I don't see any way in which that is "actively hostile to packaging".

Either way, we need to make it very clear which way we are going:

- Distributing tlmgr and making it work
- Not distributing tlmgr and not supporting it (move to `texlive-bin` if you want that)

Not in this state of limbo where we have an nonfunctional tlmgr script and people semi-regularly complaining about it.
