After being rather rudely treated by the tetex-bin maintainers, I gather
this needs to be submitted here. If this is not the correct place, I
apologize.
The problem in a nutshell: The latest version of tetex-bin Depends: on
libz1. The Packages page for it,[*] however, lists it as depending on
zlib1g. I'm assuming that this translation is being done by the CGI
script that generates the page (or when the page is updated server-side,
as the case may be), on the premise that zlib1g Provides: libz1. The
problem is that this is only true as of zlib1g 1:1.1.3-5; I had
1:1.1.3-2, so the install failed, with no obvious way of telling what
was wrong.
I respectfully submit, then, that this automatic libz1 -> zlib1g
translation, at whatever stage it occurs, should include a mention this
minimum version requirement.

Hi,
As we discussed earlier, your request is a bit too hard to implement, and
the gain doesn't make it worthwhile, so I'm going to close the bug now.
Sorry. :(
