Hm? I don't understand you. If a developer ("package maintainer") updates and cares about foo.spec, (s)he knows that this package needs or not any tetex-package.

Any cases: search in poldek which package provides tetex-foo and can find that texlive-foo2 provides tetex-foo.

So do you say that should be create texlive2008.spec?
