I see that another tex package e.g. jadetex has a comment about 
"use texconfig-sys rehash instead of texhash", and the change was...

 %post
-/usr/bin/env - PATH=$PATH:%{TeXdir}/bin texhash > /dev/null 2>&1
+[ -x %{_bindir}/texconfig-sys ] && %{_bindir}/texconfig-sys rehash
2> /dev/null || :

+%postun
+[ -x %{_bindir}/texconfig-sys ] && %{_bindir}/texconfig-sys rehash
2> /dev/null || :
+

So maybe a determination of the right way to rehash is called for and
consistent usage might clear this up ?
