Thanks Alexander, if I got the point correctly, we can only rely on the tetex package, not on any system-whatever_tex package. Did I? In case, I'll update pyx according this.
However, I have the impression that many users won't be happy with this. Since OSX came out a lot of people using TeX and its cousins had installed and happly used TeX distributions like the Gerben Wierda's one or the new MacTeX (based on TeXLive). Stopping supporting the system-* packages means to ask all these people to stop using either Fink or their TeX distro. I guess they'll go for the former. This is only my humble opinion though...
