I'm replying to this, but consider my comment as applying to #381471 as
well.
I don't think "polluting" all packages that need tetex-whatever with
alternative dependencies on texlive-whatever is a good idea. It would be
much better to make both tetex-whatever and texlive-whatever Provides a
virtual package like latex-whatever and then ask all interested packages
to use a dependencies on the virtual package.
This way we would at least have to do the work once, what if tomorrow we
will add in debian another latex implementation? Should we go through
all the involved packages again?
Feel free to raise the issue on debian-devel.
Cheers.
