Not absolutely, positively sure, but (a) I didn't see anything, and (b) the SuSE tetex distributions don't have any ``newer'' program, and they're the same tetex version number as the OpenPKG. I'm building tetex in preparation of building lyx. So far I've failed building lyx on a FreeBSD 4.8 box (yeah, I know I should update it), so am switching to SuSE 9.0 or 9.1 since that's where I do my serious desktop work. FWIW, our OpenPKG environment here is basically Release 2.1 with selected CURRENT packages as I'm attempting to minimize the amount of time I spend rebuilding and updating on production machines.
