For few funny addicts of TeX; I made Debian package of
1999/06/01 LaTeX2e and put it in
http://www1.pm.tokushima-u.ac.jp/%7Ekohda/debian/package/
It is WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY and use it at your own risk !!!

Unfortunately there is no response at all on these but please
note these are possibly essential problem to use (La)TeX in
many countries other than US and/or Europe.
Do you know there is already multi-lingual TeX in Japan, of
course it is not complete yet and perhaps of beta state ?
I hope Debian thinks of much more about outside US and/or
Europe.
Thanks in advance, 1999.8.27
