debian/rules, debian/control: build with g++-4.3 -fno-tree-ter on armel,
instead of build-depending on g++-4.2.

* Cherry-pick a fix from Debian to fix a build failure with current
  poppler:
  - update the poppler patch for version 0.10, that brings in another
    build-dep on pkg-config, update the control file (Closes: #518634)

* add texlive-extra-utils replaces tetex-bin (<<2007) to make sure
  upgrade from Etch does work (Closes: #503462) (RC->medium)
* drop three recommends to suggests:
  - texlive-extra-utils -> dvi2tty: dvi2tty is not in testing
  - texlive-extra-utils -> dvidvi: added feature, no direct need
  - texlive-base-bin -> perl-tk: we give an error message on texdoctk if
    perl-tk is missing
  (Closes: #502527)

* Demote dvi2tty and dvidvi from Recommends to Suggests. The former is not
  in Debian testing and orphaned, and in general current LaTeX defaults and
  encourages the PDF format now (instead of the ancient DVI).
* Demote perl-tk, too. It is in universe, and really not something that
  most LaTeX users will ever need to be installed by default.

add missing source roadmap.fig of roadmap.eps in fontinst documentation
(Closes: #482915) (urgency medium due to RC bug)
(new patch add-missing-fontinst-source)

blacklist dvidvi.tpm and add a recommend tl-extra-utils -> dvidvi
(Closes: #411537)

* first upload to unstable, sponsored by
  Frank Küster <email address hidden>
* texdoc support
  - let tetex texdoc find documentation of texlive (Closes: #364776)
  - include tetex texdoc patches (following of symlinks, security
    fixes) (Closes: #356390)
* texlive-lang-polish conflicts with octave-forge as both provide
  /usr/bin/mex, this is preliminary, a better solution must be
  sought (Closes: #364059)
* change shell for the reportbug script to bash (Closes: #356391)
* fix installation of thumbpdf and pdfcrop (Closes: #352092)
* improve various descriptions (Closes: #354964)
* call the update-* programs in all postinst scripts, so that the
  config files do not contain left-overs (Closes: #355266)
* fix creation of formats which in turn depend on the latex format
  (Closes: #351707)
* remap the ibycus4.map TeX/MF input file from the fonts/map location
  to the fonts/source location (Closes: #354652)
* depend on the updated lmodern package, thus making the fonts
  available for X (Closes: #351727)
* lots of internal changes, important ones being:
  - texlive packages now do not include files which have been
    packaged for Debian already (eg cm-super, lmodern, musixtex)
  - most packages can be used together with teTeX
  - fix several upstream bugs
  - generate license information for each file from the
    TeX Catalogue (ongoing work)
