Re: Upgrade failure for texlive-xetex from 2007 to 2009

Hi Andreas,

thanks for the report and thanks for testing, but ...

You are using an old version. 2009-2 of texlive-binaries fixes this
problem. I don't know why the version there is still at 2009-1 ...
and experimental.debian.net seems to be dead.

Best wishes

Norbert
