Could this be a subsequent error from #453903 and friends?

Well, the quoted sentence above is future tense. Actually I've doubt
that there is a package in Debian providing passivetex, especially
TeX Live probably doesn't. Can anybody clarify this?

Thanks,

No, impossible. It is NOT PROVIDED!! Amaya, please check before you
change something like this, check that it is actually provided.

I have merged xmltex/passivetex packages available, see my
people.debian.org/~preining/TeX/ there should be packages. I had some
dicsussion with people trying to see whether it actually works, but
didn't get any answers till now.

If someone can take a look at these packages...

	dget http://people.debian.org/~preining/TeX/xmltex/xmltex_1.9.debian.1-1~1.dsc

Best wishes

Bug#473791: Missing dependencies

Package: texlive-pstricks
Version: 2007.dgfs.1-1

Hello,

pdftricks, which is part of this package, needs ps2eps(1) (from the
package which has the same name) and epstopdf(1) (from the package
texlive-extra-utils). However, texlive-pstricks doesn't depend on
those two packages ; as a result, documents using pdftricks don't
compile when installing only texlive-pstricks.

I suggest adding those two packages, at least as soft (Suggests or
Recommends) dependencies.

Regards,

This looks like a good fix to me, but as I am no Tex expert, I can't
really confirm anything at all. I would just upload and deal with
problems later: release often, release soon. But of course, YMMV.

Thanks for your time, and sorry about the inconvenience.

Happy hacking!
