Package: tetex-bin Version: 3.0-30 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable
After a certain date, sometime in the first quarter of 2009, some Latex source files included with tetex-bin became older than 5 years. Now, trying to install tetex-bin results in a failure with these errors: ############################################################################### fmtutil: Error!
