You don't need tetex-extra anymore. It is now only a transitional (dummy) package. When it wasn't, it did provide support for all these languages, which is why the transitional package _has_ to depend on all these -lang packages, otherwise it would break compatibility. You don't need tetex-extra anymore. Remove it and chose the exact functionality you need among the texlive-* packages. If you find a package that depends on a tetex package with *no* alternative texlive dependency, file a bug against that package. prosper already has such an alternative dependency, just in the wrong order. > ..thanks, it was me choosing prosper that triggered this > huge pile of -lang packages on me this time around. You didn't examine the dependencies carefully enough. They can be fulfilled without keeping tetex-extra, and thus without installing all the -lang packages. -- Florent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
