tetex is old and deprecated, texlive is its successor. In the long run, all the debian packages will be migrated to texlive from tetex. The transition has been announced sometime back on http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2007/04/msg00006.html . Only recently the texlive packages started to trickle into testing from unstable. I also suggest to subscribe to debian-devel-announce to keep abreast of these kind of transitions. > Do I > need both tetex and texlive packages?

Most likely you need only texlive packages in the long run. hth raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/kk288/ http://malayamaarutham.blogspot.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
