I've just verified that tetex-bin 2.0.2-18[1] seems[2] to fix this issue,
jadetex is indeed installable with this version of tetex.

Therefore the only thing missing to declare this fixed is to make
jadetex conflict with tetex-bin (= 2.0.2-17).

PS: How about merging these three identical bug-reports?

[1] in incoming:
* Don't revert the TeX - e-TeX migration but build the formats latex.fmt
  and pdflatex.fmt too, as they are needed in rare cases. [kohda]
  (Closes: #263296, #264043)

[2] I've installed and configured it, and built gnobog, which uses
docbook-utils.
