Dear Claire and other tetex developers in Debian,

I've been using Claire's cm-super package version 0.3.3-2 for almost a
year now and things are working quite well with the tetex version
currently in testing. Like another poster hinted, the only thing that
was missing in my earlier setup was to run updmap and things are working
brilliantly.

Is there any progress in getting cm-super integrated in sarge?

I have many friends that would like to generate decent PDF files with
Computer Modern fonts (or the Concrete Mathematics fonts), but since the
packages that Claire put in her repository
(http://people.debian.org/~cmc/) are gone, I am not able to make new
install both for mylsef and my friends.

I would sincerely love to get it included into Debian sarge, if
possible (or know if there is any reason that would prevent it from
being included).


Thanks in advance, Rogério Brito.
