Depends: dpkg (= 1.14.18), tex-common (= 1.18), texlive-common (= 2007) and no suggests or recommends. texlive-latex-extra-doc does not pull in *any* package that isn't already installed. I guess this bug was another incarnation of I don't like to have the -doc package automatically installed, b/c auf Recommends. Our answer is normally: Upstream recommands to install the docu, hence we have recommend these packages. If anybody doesn't like that he should reconfigure apt to not install recommended packages..
