Hi,

We Debian tetex maintainers once got the bug report
in Bug#164820 on the security problem.

We had a patch in

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=164820

and the current package (based on teTeX 20021025) was applied 
this patch, but the latest teTeX is changed and the patch can't 
be applied anymore.

Is the problem is fixed already or another patch is needed?

# Sorry if this is well-known issue.

Thanks in advance,		2003.1.6(Mon)
