Hi Danai, hi Norbert,

as the latest version of cjk solves #1006974 [1] I tend to upload ASAP.
The packaging seems to be complete to me, please be so kind to have a
look at the packages. There are a lot of lintian fixes still open, but I
tend to do it at any time later.

I have questions, I'd like to clarify before:

- I've removed font(?) packages (hbf-cns40-b5, hbf-jfs56 & hbf-kanji48)
from suggests & package description. I guess there no replacements for
these packages, are there?

Yeah, drop these suggestions for Sid.
It was mostly used for very specialised Buddhist and other ancient texts anyway.

- I noticed that cjk (in this case c) does not seem to work without
latex-cjk-chinese-arphic*. Would it make sense to declare a depends? Or
do we need to keep it on recommends so ends user can choose, which
package to use?

My thought was the latter, because font packages are rather big.
But it may be best to change to Depends to avoid unnecessary bug reports by people who further to install any font.

- I tend to drop cjk-latex, after being a dummy/transitional package for
 > 10 years.

Yeah, makes sense.

Thanks for uploading!
