Next time, please use the BTS to notify us of such problems. A single
mail to the list will be too easily forgotten.

Hm, yes, unless there's a reason not to.  Is this file used by the
endfloat package? In this case, we shouldn't install it in a place where
it is found - because this would mean that any user of endfloat would
get apa's custom settings. Instead, we should install it in the doc
directory, and the user should then copy it to the same directory as the
file which uses apa.cls.

Dear bug submitter,

the bug you have submitted against one of the TeX packages concerns
not the Debian packaging of TeX Live, nor the upstream TeX Live 
distribution itself, but Up-upstream, the original author of
the respective package.

TeX Live only collects what authors provide.

Thus, neither we, the Debian TeX Team, nor the Upstream TeX Live team
can fix anything regarding this bug.

Furthermore, the bug you have reported is rather old.

We suggest you to do the following:
* verify that the bug is still present with current TeX Live (2013)
  installation on Debian
* if yes, please report the bug to the *original* author of the TeX
  package, and *not* to upstream TeX Live nor Debian

Other ways to deal with these bugs are requesting help from TeX experts,
your local TeX consultant, or local TeX User Groups. One good place to
ask questions is the newsgroup comp.text.tex, or the StackExchange
website http://tex.stackexchange.com


Thanks a lot for your understanding

Norbert
