Sorry for delay but I just uploaded fixed version of tetex.

I had already installed update-updmap and it needed modification
of tetex-base because tetex-base included updmap.cfg
Further I had already modified tetex-base (and tetex-extra) so that 
tetex-base included pdftex/pdflatex and tetex-extra included 
texdoctk and eurosym.  These needed a bit more work than I expected.

There might remain some problems but it could be fixed anyway.

Best regards,			 2003-1-4(Sat)
