I think we've already discussed this in some older bugreport.  I repeat
from memory:

- auctex needs to Depend on a package which provides the latex format,
  i.e. texlive-latex-base, hence the severity serious

- preview-latex-style only depends on texlive-base, which makes sense
  because you can also use it with plain TeX or ConTeXt.  But I suggest
  that it should Recommend texlive-latex-base

- please please drop all references to tetex-*.  In particular,
  tetex-base is now an empty package which depends on nothing.
