Yes and no. texlive is a user-oriented, what I was thinking of is something Build-dep-oriented. It might be the same now, but not in the future. By the way, why did we drop context from texlive's Depends? I remember that I suggested to drop it from tetex-bin's depends, but not why we instead pulled it from the default texlive install. >> Or we just suggest maintainers to start with texlive-latex-recommended >> instead of -base?
