Thanks for the heads up.  Indeed, the docs which are built differ according
to which package is installed (tetex-bin or texlive-base-bin).

I just uploaded version 2006.07.09+dfsg1-7 to unstable.  The only change
between -6 and -7 is the removal of the texlive-base-bin build-dependency
(see attached diff).  Just for the record, I am also attaching the diff
between -4 (the version currently in testing) and -7.

Please, hint -7 in etch, if possible.
