Hi all, I would like to ask again for freeze exceptions for texlive-extra and for texlive-bin.

Concerning texlive-extra it is nothing else then again removal of non-free stuff following upstream: texlive-extra (2007.dfsg.8-1) unstable; urgency=medium This release fixes (again) RC bugs by removing non free stuff, so new orig.tar is needed, and urgency medium. [ Norbert Preining ] * fix typo in changelog entry in 2007.dfsg.7-1 (Closes: #501880) * blacklist kalendar since it is nonfree (Closes: #502515) [ Frank Küster ] * blacklist hilowres since it is nonfree (Closes: #502002) -- Norbert Preining <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mon, 27 Oct 2008 00:05:41 +0100 Then I would like to ask for a freeze exception for texlive-bin: texlive-bin (2007.dfsg.2-4) unstable; urgency=medium * add texlive-extra-utils replaces tetex-bin (<<2007) to make sure upgrade from Etch does work (Closes: #503462) (RC->medium) * drop three recommends to suggests: - texlive-extra-utils -> dvi2tty: dvi2tty is not in testing - texlive-extra-utils -> dvidvi: added feature, no direct need - texlive-base-bin -> perl-tk: we give an error message on texdoctk if perl-tk is missing (Closes: #502527) -- Norbert Preining <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mon, 27 Oct 2008 01:13:56 +0100 The first is an RC bug, the second one are useful additions, since dvi2tty is missing in Lenny and and recommending it could create problems. The other downgrades also do make sense since now recommends is quasi a default installation, it is not useful to have that on all installations. Perl-Tk could be a problem, but the only small program using it already issues a warning that perl-tk has to be installed. So the user will know.
