Hi Luigi,

No. I have no intention to do that. Because the fix that would be
the only reasonable wrt the descriptions is to make all the
texlive packages arch any (!!!) and build all out of one source
package. Both things that *I* wouldn't mind but Debian doesn't want.
texlive-binaries' existence is only because it collects the actually
compiled stuff. It should be a hidden package that only delivers
packages. THe real "content" is always in one of the other
texlive-packages, in this case in texlive-extra-utils.
Furthermore, the names mentioned in the descriptions are not
program names, but the upstream TeX Live package names.
And no, we will not change this description to list the actual
binaries, because that would increase 10fold (guess)
