Hi Jan, first of all: Thank you for clearing things up.

Therefore you might end with an installation of both alternative packages without *explicitly* selecting them both. I assume now, that the dependency references tetex-tiny unless the optional package needs the full stuff from tetex-base. > I'll add this note to the announce message, and include it in the > README for the next release: > > NOTE: The tetex-tiny and tetex-base packages overlap.

If you do, you must reinstall the other. OK. This will help definately tetex dummies as me :) Regards, Jörg -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
