tetex-bin in setup.hint for octave-forge (ATTN: uploaders, gnuplot maintainer)

==Uploaders,

The consensus on cygwin@cygwin.com is that it is gnuplot that depends on
tetex-bin, not octave-forge.  Therefore, could you please assist by editing the
octave-forge setup.hint file to remove the tetex-bin dependence, or
equivalently revert to the previous setup.hint.

Thanks to John Ewing and others for helping run down this issue.

==Gnuplot maintainer,

Could you please read the discussion thread starting at

http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2005-12/msg00224.html

and suggest a method for resolving the issue of gnuplot calling kpsexpand from
tetex-bin without declaring tetex-bin as a dependency?  Thanks.

jrp
