I must admit that I might have refused to make an upload of one of the packages Benjamin suggested, even if he sent it to the mailing lists, for a combination of a couple of reasons: - I don't know him (yet), so I wouldn't have trusted his patch and packaging, but instead would have to look closely at the package just as if I was doing the NMU myself - I currently have the feeling that we shouldn't keep old TeX-related, hardly maintained packages alive, but instead either kick them out or integrate them into TeX Live - I don't have much time frequently Regards, Frank -- Frank Küster Single Molecule Spectroscopy, Protein Folding @ Inst. f.
