AFAIS yes. I have added that to the changelog (and also to the
respective config files)
* make texlive-latex-recommended provide latex-ucs-uninames, latex-ucs,
latex-ucs-contrib as these Debian packages have been given up for
adoption
The problem is that there are still several packages depending on
latex-ucs:
|muttprint
has already texlive-latex-recommended as alternative
latex-ucs-dev
itself no reverse depends, can go away, too
latex-ucs-contrib
taken over
kdissert
ugg, that is bad, it depends on tetex-bin/base etc without any
texlive packages, should be bugged anyway
ipe
only a suggests, so no hurry
grisbi
recommends latex-ucs
alml
depends on latex-ucs, latex-ucs-contrib, latex-ucs-uninames
What about uploading a dummy package that depends on
texlive-latex-recommended and filing bugs against those packages to
replace the relations? But all after src:texlive-base 2007-14 has been
released.
Best wishes
Norbert
