I would like to include the new latex version into potato. Thomas
Esser has even included in a minor upgrade to tetex. Normally his work
is very good. But I am not shure if it is a good idea to bring all

We could have a try and a lot of testing.

What do the other Debian tetex maintainers think of that.

What other bugs are important enough to be fixed for potato.
