#265078 is still open. I do not quite understand this. Either we say
that it is *not* a bug to not declare a conflict with a particular
version (of tetex-bin) that was never in testing. Then we can close it.

Or we say that, since it might still be a problem for users that have
sid in their sources list, but do *very* infrequent upgrades, it is a
bug. Then why not simply fix it, by adding the Conflicts with
tetex-bin_2.0.2-17?

Considering the discussion started today on -devel, *I* would close it.

Regards, Frank
