Package: tetex-bin
Version: 1.0.7+20001218-4
Severity: wishlist

tetex-bin is commonly required to build documentation in several
Debian packages, and is a build-depends of them, including xfree86. 
The problem is that with xdvi in the package, X indirectly
build-depends on itself.  It would also means that many non-X packages
that use tetex-bin for building documentation have to install
xlibs-dev, even if they don't need them.  If xdvi was in a seperate
package, this wouldn't be needed and would make buildong of these
packages faster on autobuilders that don't have xlibs-dev installed in
the chroot (most of them are this way, to my knowledge).

teTeX i obsolete for a while now, I'm closing your bug now. If you
think the same should be implemented for TL, please file a new bug.
