Bug#666067: transition: libkpathsea6
Cc:ed maintainers, please comment on the relevant note below which
corresponds to your package.
For context, these four packages are broken by the transition of the new
libkpathsea + texlive stack to testing, which I'm trying to finalise.
I'd like to get that out of the way over the weekend, if not before, so
speedy responses would be appreciated. There's a possibility the
packages may be removed from testing if necessary.
