Hm. We've got
tetex-bin_2007-2:
Depends: texlive
texlive_2007-2:
Depends: ..., texlive-latex-base
texlive-latex-base_2007-2:
Depends: texlive-base, texlive-common (>= 2007)
and
texlive-common_2007-2:
Conflicts: tetex-bin (<< 2007)
Moreover, the only texlive-* in sid is 2007-2 (-1 is only in
experimental).
Could you please check the installed versions of all of them? Maybe we
need more versioned dependencies (in particular, tetex-bin should
probably depend on texlive-common (>= 2007)).
