Well, tetex-bin in sid at present is rather old and
we are (or I am?) now preparing new tetex-* packages based 
on teTeX-beta.

I'm not sure but I believe you can build these new experimental
packages.

If possible, please try tetex-bin in

http://www1.pm.tokushima-u.ac.jp/%7Ekohda/debian/experiment/

As far as I understand, new official teTeX will be released near 
the end of this year.  We can perhaps upload new tetex-* packages
soon after when an official teTeX will be released.

Now I could not determine if I should upload experimenta packages
base on teTeX-beta or not...
