Thanks for the report.

1. [mftrace] preferable dependencies:
 BuildDepends: fink (>= 0.24.12-1), libkpathsea6 | libkpathsea4 | system-tetex
 Depends: python25, libkpathsea6-shlibs | libkpathsea4-shlibs | system-tetex, 
texlive-base | tetex3-base | system-tetex, potrace, t1utils, fontforge (>= 
20070607-1)

Current mftrace's dependencies don't consider texlive. So
users can't install it with texlive currently (tetex only).

2. [libkpathsea4] should add
 Conflicts: libkpathsea6
 Replaces:  libkpathsea6

FYI: libkpathsea6 already conflicts/replaces libkpathsea4.
I don't think libkpathsea4 should replace texlive-base.
(but if it's indispensable for something I'm ok)

3. [texlive-base] Added
 Replaces: libkpathsea4
just in case. (already done)
