Re: Bug#180307: unable to remove dvipdfm



reassign 180307 tetex-base
thanks

Tetex-base probably should Conflict with/Replace dvipdfm to avoid these 
problems.  This package cannot simply overwrite one of the files that 
dvipdfm has diverted and ignore it.

Another possibility would be to have the preinst script remove the 
diversion before tetex-base is installed.

P.S. In my opinion, the tetex-base package should never have contained 
this file prior to version 2.0, in the first place.  Then I would not have 
needed to use diversions as a kludge.
