The ls-R file is currently generated by the postinst script. I think
that the only way to properly fixing the problem is by removing the file
in the prerm script. This is the fix that I committed to the SVN
repository and will be present in the forthcoming release 2.1.71-5. I am
delaying this release until the hdf5/lam transition mess is sorted out
(see http://bjorn.haxx.se/debian/testing.pl?package=octave2.1).
