Actually in Debian the user is able to choose whether to use teTeX or TeX Live. And it is even possible to add packages from TeX Live to a teTeX installation (or the other way round, but that is less interesting). However, for this to work it is necessary for depending packages to provide suitable alternatives. At the moment sisu-pdf depends on: tetex-bin tetex-extra texlive-latex-extra It would be good if you would change this into tetex-bin | texlive-base-bin tetex-extra | texlive-latex-extra texlive-latex-extra (I am not completly sure what your actual dependencies are on the LaTeX level. Please cross check.) As Frank said, teTeX is dead upstream, so it is quite likely that TeX Live will be the TeX system of choice on Debian in the not so far future. cheerio ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
