Not sure how to solve this. Current situation is:

- htlatex is provided by texlive-plain-generic
- texlive-plain-generic has a dep on texlive-base & texlive-binaries

So one has a basic TeX installation but latex is not available in 100%
of all cases. I tend to add suggest: texlive-latex-base to
texlive-plain-generic.

Any opinion?
