How do we continue, Frank? I guess best is to do nothing and wait until
tetex3 hits testing, and everything is fixed. Or?

Uploading a new version of tetex-bin without the file would be overkill.
And I probably cannot get you to make a upload of texinfo for me which
conflicts with tetex-bin (<= 2.0.2-31).

Other solution ideas?
