Please add an lenny-ignore tag to bug #477060



Dear release team,

as explained in my earlier mails, I request that you grant a
lenny-ignore tag to bug 

#477060 texlive-base: license of amslatex is unclear

We have already explained the reasons in
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=55;bug=477060 and
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?msg=60;bug=477060

Meanwhile, it has been found out that doxygen creates code which
requires amslatex. This means that removing AMSLaTeX (in other words,
not granting the tag) will not be possible without delaying lenny for
weeks, except if someone steps up and does lots of test compiles and
maybe code fixes. 

Which I do not expect, since 

- the TeX team is no less overworked since I first asked the release
  team about the issue in July, and

- the release team doesn't seem to have any manpower to handle this.

Regards, Frank
