The only package I downgraded was tetex-base. I discovered that tetex-base was upgraded to 2007-9 when tex started telling me it couldn't find "article.sty". :) Once I downgraded it, I was able to to install lmodern. I suppose the fact that you could install tetex-base 2007-9 w/o also pulling in texlive or some other useful pacakge is another bug. -- Itai Itai Seggev, University of Mississippi, Department of Physics and Astronomy In 1997 a group of programmers started writing a desktop environment to fix a travesty they didn't create.
