So you mean package builders should remove _all_ of the tlmgr staff in their
package? Even I have found some tlmgr staff
in texlive-20091107-texmf.tar.xz:

% tar tf texlive-20091107-texmf.tar.xz | grep tlmgr
texlive-20091107-texmf/texmf/doc/man/man1/tlmgr.man1.pdf
texlive-20091107-texmf/texmf/doc/man/man1/tlmgr.1

texlive-20091107-texmf/texmf/scripts/texlive/tlmgrgui/
texlive-20091107-texmf/texmf/scripts/texlive/tlmgrgui/gui-uninstall.pl
texlive-20091107-texmf/texmf/scripts/texlive/tlmgrgui/tlmgrgui.ico
texlive-20091107-texmf/texmf/scripts/texlive/tlmgrgui/tlmgrgui.pl
texlive-20091107-texmf/texmf/scripts/texlive/tlmgrgui/do_listframe.pl
texlive-20091107-texmf/texmf/scripts/texlive/tlmgrgui/gui-arch.pl
texlive-20091107-texmf/texmf/scripts/texlive/tlmgrgui/gui-config.pl

Are they also supposed to be removed by the package builder?
