Please unblock package latex-mk

This is an NMU patch removes dependency on tgif
which, with high confidence, is not going to be released with jessie.
Tgif is not an essential dependency and latex-mk is goind to work
just fine. If the user tries to use tgif functionality, she/he
will be shown a message showing that tgif support is not available.
The patch is attached.

+Description: Disables build dependency on tgif
+ tgif was removed from testing for various reasons.
+ First, its dependencies are not in testing (see https://bugs.debian.org/699301)
+ and then its own status is ambiguous (see https://bugs.debian.org/668249).
+ This patch disables tgif-related functionality by showing error
+ message if the user wants to use it.
