Hm, but you agree that it is not necessary to remove the libkpathsea-dev binary package from sid (or sid and etch); we can instead wait until we can remove the complete libkpathsea3 stuff, right? > Anyway, I've scheduled binNMUs for the source packages cjk-latex, dvi2dvi, > dvipng, evince, lcdf-typetools, texfam, tkdvi, and tmview, which are the > packages I found which still depend on libkpathsea3 in current unstable > versions of the packages.
