So, this is a non-solution.
Excuse me, I was fooled by the fact that #334701 was reported against tetex-bin_2.0.2-31. As of yesterday evening, 2.0.2-31 is only available in testing, and only there bug #334701 exists; for testing the "quick fix" will work. In unstable, there's the more severe bug #334613, but not #334701. To get tetex-bin_3.0-9 installed in unstable, you should make sure that /etc/texmf/fmt.d/01tetex.cnf.dpkg-dist does not exist; if it does, move 01tetex.cnf out of the way and move 01tetex.cnf.dpkg-dist to 01tetex.cnf. I have not analysed it completely, but with this setup you should be able to configure tetex-bin. Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Inst. f. Biochemie der Univ. Zürich Debian Developer
