I hit this bug upgrading from natty to oneiric 11.10.

It asks for dvips35.map which has not been found at all... when installing tex-common...

however, it is NOT a latex bug but a corrupt locale bug. which subsequently affects Latex, Kile and the like...

doing:

cd /usr/lib/locale
sudo mv locale-archive locale-archive_old
sudo LANG="C" LC_ALL="C" dpkg-reconfigure locales
sudo LANG="C" LC_ALL="C" dpkg-reconfigure texlive-binaries
sudo LANG="C" LC_ALL="C" aptitude upgrade

solved the dependency problem.

See the corrupt locale bug #663694
