Adam,

Except I don't think that SUSE is the one introducing the tetex requirement.
The .spec file did come from someone building it on a Red Hat system of some
kind (most likely Intel).

I would be vastly surprised if tetex were needed except to produce pretty
documentation.

See, this is what I have against SuSE: everything is built with all the
features turned on, and everything has huge and surprising dependencies, so
it's impossible to build a minimal system.
