Package: texlive
Version: 2005.dfsg.1-1
Severity: normal

Warrants higher severity if I have not put my system into some
idiosyncratic, oddball state. 

I think there's some kind of circular dependency among the the texlive
packages; I'm too sleepy to get to the bottom of it.

The various tex's have a checkered history on this system.  I think I
first tried texlive, found it was incompatible with some other stuff,
removed it, and installed tetex.

In the recent upgrade to KDE 3.5.4 kdegraphics seemed to require texlive
packages, but these failed with  an error that a file was owned by two
packages, and that I should remove texlive.  I attempted to do so.

I was able to proceed with the dist-upgrade.  Then I upgraded
kdegraphics, which no longer seemed to require texlive.

Then I attempted to install texlive, leading to the kind of errors
seen in the attached log.

The system currently has tetex and parts of texlive, some of the
latter being unconfigured.

Yup, thanks a lot for your detailed reports!

Done with this email. Since I didn't actually do anything to close the
bug I close it this way, and let the side effects be side effects.

Best wishes
