Hi Norbert,

Yes, please do. A DD's word may carry more weight. :-)

Yes, it's as you say more probably an apt-listbugs's bug. What prompted
me to report to the texlive maintainers is that other texlive packages
all upgrade fine, *except* texlive-latex-base. From a user's point of
view, it's very difficult to understand why this one package is anomalous.
