The TeX-related Build-deps of derivations don't seem correct, anyway
(all statements are untested, but I'm confident they are correct):
Build-Depends-Indep:
texlive-common (>= 2005.dfsg.3) This package is pulled in, in its
proper version, by any package
that provides TeX-related
typesetting functionality:
Can be dropped
texlive-base (>= 2005.dfsg.3) This package doesn't provide a
useful functionality nor
interface, unless you use plain
TeX. Even if the rather
complicated build system of
derivations does this, it also
uses LaTeX - and LaTeX will always
require these features, too, and
thus depend on the package.
Can be dropped
texlive-base-bin (>= 2005.dfsg.2) now texlive-binaries provides
executables, but no LaTeX
functionality by itself. In
teTeX with its only 3 packages,
tetex-bin was a frequent
build-dep. But in TeXLive,
texlive-latex-* is what you want.
Can be dropped
texlive-generic-recommended (>= 2005.dfsg.3)
It sounds strange to depend on
this for building LaTeX
documentation.
Should be tested whether it is needed.
texlive-latex-base (>=2005.dfsg.3)
This and tl-pstricks are probably
the only that need to stay. The
versioned dep isn't necessary
(there's no older version
anywhere).
