Okay, it's your decision. But please allow me to comment
a bit.
Consider a case that a user turned off the debconf question
and installed jadetex (that was successful). After a while,
if tetex is upgraded (but jadetex.fmt is not regenerated) and
a user runs jadetex then there would be some inconsistency
and a user might get "I'm stymied" error.
I might misunderstand but there could be such possibility,
IMHO. (So at least some note in README.Debian might be
necessary.)
Thanks for your cooperation. 2003-7-29(Tue)
