Thanks for clarifying the situation. I was basing the availability on
Fink Commander's display, which shows binary availability for tetex-texmf.
This must be because I have the package built, so there is a binary on my
system.

from source, for licensing reasons.
We realize that this makes things a bit awkward when using apt-get or

Hmmm. The problem looks to be in a different location than I had thought.
It definitely looks like circular dependencies. I was able to reinstall
tetex-base using apt-get, so the dependencies look OK on the remote side.

You may have a bad file. Try removing the tetex-base*.deb file from
/sw/var/cache/apt/archives, so that you can try with a freshly downloaded
deb file.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have

Do you have system-tetex installed? You shouldn't if you are going to
install tetex through fink--it's a placeholder that you install if you've
installed tetex yourself (in /usr/local, usually). If you do have
system-tetex installed, then uninstall it, and try again to update.

Hi
According to my system tetex-texmf is indeed available in binary form.
Have you updated your package listings (these get updated much more
frequently than major version releases are made)? Do a 'sudo apt-get
update' and see if you can proceed.
