I did as suggested in the FAQ (sudo dpkg -r --force-all ptex-base). I still get problems. I note that there's another person trying to get gtk-2 working who's getting the same circular dependency errors in the same spot. For the record, the conclusion of my last try was:
Updating the list of locally available binary packages. Scanning dists/unstable/main/binary-darwin-i386 New package: dists/unstable/main/binary-darwin-i386/text/tetex-base_3.0-1006_darwin-i386.deb New package: dists/unstable/main/binary-darwin-i386/text/tetex_3.0-1006_darwin-i386.deb Failed: Problem resolving dependencies.
