Why did you change Conflicts and Replaces of tetex-base and -extra?

This makes it conflict with its brother tetex-extra. The only one of
these that exist in woody are
- revtex: no fonts at all - so there's no relationship needed
- tetex-eurosym.
Here we have a problem. Currently tetex-extra replaces tetex-eurosym,
and Conflicts with it. From a packaging point of view, it is o.k. for
tetex-extra-fonts to not declare any relationship to
tetex-eurosym. However, the files previously in tetex-eurosym are now
in two packages, tetex-extra and tetex-extra-fonts.
Hm. Ugly. One option would be to have a pseudo-package tetex-eurosym
that depends on both tetex-extra and tetex-extra-fonts. The other
would be to simply ignore this and only document in README.Debian that
the type1 fonts for eurosym are now in tetex-extra-fonts.
- texdoctk: no fonts at all, no relationship needed
- tetex-extra: This is of course needed.
+Replaces: textfm, latex, texidoc, texpsfnt, mfbasfnt, mfnfss, amsfonts, amstex, amslatex, ltxmisc, ltxtool, psnfss, mfdcfnt, mflib, pandora, hyperref, cspsfonts, tetex-bin (<< 1.0.7+20021025-3), tetex-french, tetex-nonfree, pb-diagram, tetex-base (<< 2.0-2), tetex-eurosym
This is for sure incorrect. I think it just cannot replace anything,
because it will never contain all files of one of these packages. And it
doesn't need to, as long as we get the conflicts and depends correct.

This file should be named tetex-extra-fonts.copyright and be installed
as /usr/share/doc/tetex-extra-fonts/copyright.
+ ln -s `cat debian/tetex-extra-fonts.files|sed s#^u#\/u#g` debian/tetex-base/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/
This doesn't do what it should. I don't know why - in the shell it
does. But on my system, no links are created at all.
