Anyway, you haven't even read what I've written. *sigh* How can users know which package to install to get a working TeX system? With tetex, everything is simple. Now with two tex package sets, one of them extremely granular, how can a user not aware about texlive, tetex and Debian internals know whether he has to install tetex-base, texlive-latex-base or texlive-foobar-stuff ? Worse, how can he know what Debian package to install when a .sty is missing? Will it be in texlive-math-extra, texlive-latex-recommended or texlive-formats-extra? -- .''`.
