Martin, It is not an omission that system-tetex does not provide tetex-dev.
One of the differences between Gerben Wierda's teTeX distribution and the fink one is that in fink, we build libkpathsea as a shared library, whereas it is only a static library in Wierda's distribution. (This may change with the forthcoming teTeX 3.0, since shared libraries will become the default, and Wierda almost always uses the defaults.) As a consequence, if you want to compile another piece of software which links the kpathsea library, you either need to force it to link the static version, or else have "BuildDepends: tetex-dev" and "Depends: tetex-shlibs". However, if the kpathsea library is not being linked in, there is no reason for any dependency on tetex-dev. -- Dave Martin Costabel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Andrea Riciputi wrote: > [] > >> Package: pyx-py23 > >> Version: 0.5.1 > >> Revision: 1 > >> Depends: python23|python23-nox, tetex-base | system-tetex, ghostscript > > system-tetex already "Provides" tetex-base, so you don't need this > alternative.
