I tried doing:
apt-get remote tetex-bin tetex-base tetex-extra
dpkg --purge tetex-bin
dpkg --purge tetex-base
apt-get install tetex-bin tetex-base tetex-extra dvi2ps cjk-latex

And now, I don't get that error, though tetex-extra is failing in postinst
(will open a bug on that after this mail.)

tetex-base was 2.0.2-5.1 when I encountered that error, and this one, too,
though I was upgrading from woody via apt.

Checked the package contents through the web form, and saw XDvi in tetex-base
there, too, so I don't know what's going on.  You can close the bug, and I'll
re-open with more information if I manage to reproduce it.

Thanks,
