I guess, I missed the word "legacy packages". AFAICS now Frank plans
to provide further libkpathsea{3,-dev} for these packages, which
haven't changed the interface yet. Run the new tetex and the new
libkpathsea4 parallel and leave the migration of the "old" packages
and the removal of libkpathsea3 to post-sarge.
Sorry for confusion,
