package: tetex-bin
version: 1.0.7+20001218-6
I am running Testing. Today (10/16, approx 8:30pm EST), I ran updates and
upgrades. I then decided to install the tetex packages. tetex-base was
already installed (presumably during the initial installation). I
installed tetex-doc, tetex-bin, and tetex-extra. No problems with
tetex-doc, of course.
When trying to install tetex-bin, I get a 'teTeX setup utility' dialog
box, that complains:
Could not find app-default file for xdvi.
The programm will exit now.

Answers are easy. It's asking the right question that's hard.
