Yes. I'm tracking tetex development (as was Jerome), for the obvious
reasons. These packages fix a number of more important bugs, I think;
and I'll repackage any newer release.

What package? In general, I don't like the idea of bundeling packages
downstream. Want another package too? Add another package. Note
that I also de-bundled psutils. There was a request/bug report about
that, so packaged it separately (unmaintained). Haven't heard
anything about it, of course.

Which bitmap fonts do you refer to? The bluesky type1 fonts are
available.
Greetings,
