Umpf, this is bad, and strange. But I also expect that it will not make
it into an updatedsarge revision. So you have to fix it anyway by
yourself.

Then I would suggest either of the following ways:
- either continue to use your updated pts-tetex... package
- or switch tot tetex3+cm-super
As I said, I don't believe that the original maintainer of pts-tetex-..
will update the package, as it probably will not be included in any
sarge revision. And in testing there is tetex3.

Good idea, I will think about it. Currently I don't use it after initial
installation, so it might be a good idea to empty it.
Other opinions?
Could you please write a wishlist bug to the cm-super package to remind
me of this, would be great.
Best wishes
