teTeX testing migration: is hinting needed, or is it a versioned BTS issue?

[Frank Küster <frank@debian.org>]

Hi,

although tetex-base is 11 days old, it has not entered testing.  I have
been told previously that the scripts should now be clever enough to
detect that it has to go in with tetex-bin in one run without manual
hinting, so what's the problem? 

The update-excuses at http://qa.debian.org/developer.php?excuse=tetex-base
say that the binary packages tetex-doc and tetex-base are both "buggy
(1>0)", however, the tetex-doc bug is present in all versions (nonfree
documentation), and the tetex-base bug is present *only* in testing (and
in sarge).

Am I doing something wrong?

Regards, Frank
