This allows users to switch an implementation (tetex -> texlive, for example). Also, a number of these packages have the USE flag tetex, which should be, probably, replaced by the global USE flag latex (maybe, tex also should become a global USE flag, if there are enough packages with plain TeX support), see bug #196745. Here is a list of packages; it there are really *good* reasons to depend on virtaul/tetex and not virtual/latex-base (i.e., tetex cannot be replaced by texlive as a dependency of some specific package), then, of course, the virtaul/tetex will remain for time being; but such cases require a careful examination - maybe, they can use texlive instead. dev-tools@gentoo.org, nerdboy@gentoo.org: app-doc/doxygen emacs@gentoo.org, common-lisp@gentoo.org: app-emacs/slime shell-tools@gentoo.org: app-misc/tdl kernel-misc@gentoo.org: app-misc/fdutils ferdy@gentoo.org: app-misc/muttprint maintainer-needed@gentoo.org: app-misc/chesstask dev-lang/mmix dev-util/ragel tex@gentoo.org: app-office/eqe app-text/active-dvi app-text/pdfjam app-text/passivetex gnome-office@gentoo.org, guilc@fr.st: app-office/grisbi kde@gentoo.org: app-office/kletterwizard kde-base/kdvi kde@gentoo.org, cryos@gentoo.org: app-text/kbibtex vim@gentoo.org, james.noble@worc.ox.ac.uk: app-vim/latexsuite ada@gentoo.org: dev-ada/asis-gpl vapier@gentoo.org: dev-libs/libtomcrypt common-lisp@gentoo.org: dev-lisp/cl-mcclim dev-lisp/cl-cgi-utils dev-lisp/cl-tclink dev-lisp/cl-cffi perl@gentoo.org: dev-perl/Template-Latex python@gentoo.org: dev-python/pyx tcltk@gentoo.org: dev-tcltk/tkzinc dev-embedded@gentoo.org: dev-tinyos/tos haskell@gentoo.org: dev-util/bnfc dev-util/darcs haskell@gentoo.org, tex@gentoo.org: dev-haskell/lhs2tex games@gentoo.org: games-board/freedoko centic@gentoo.org: media-gfx/asymptote cjk@gentoo.org: media-libs/vflib sound@gentoo.org: media-sound/musescore netmon@gentoo.org: net-analyzer/sonar netmon@gentoo.org, anant@gentoo.org: net-analyzer/ns net-dialup@gentoo.org: net-dialup/mgetty sci-biology@gentoo.org: sci-biology/wise sci-chemistry@gentoo.org: sci-chemistry/moldy sci-geosciences@gentoo.org: sci-geosciences/gpsbabel sci-libs/libcore sci@gentoo.org: sci-libs/pgplot sci-misc/gri sci-visualization/pyxplot markusle@gentoo.org: sci-libs/itpp sci-mathematics@gentoo.org: sci-mathematics/pari sci-mathematics/nusmv robbat2@gentoo.org: sys-block/btrace hp-cluster@gentoo.org, kanaka@gentoo.org: sys-cluster/mpich2 sci@gentoo.org, markusle@gentoo.org: sys-cluster/charm base-system@gentoo.org, tantive@gentoo.org: sys-power/apcupsd mobile@gentoo.org, genstef@gentoo.org: sys-power/powersave web-apps@gentoo.org, trapni@gentoo.org, tchiwam@gentoo.org: www-apps/mediawiki net-im@gentoo.org: x11-plugins/pidgin-latex george@gentoo.org 2008-05-17 19:19:33 0000 dev-ada/asis-gpl converted. ulm@gentoo.org 2008-05-17 21:01:11 0000 > emacs@gentoo.org, common-lisp@gentoo.org: > app-emacs/slime app-emacs/slime calls texi2dvi and needs texinfo.tex, so the dependency would be something like ... virtual/latex-base || ( dev-texlive/texlive-texinfo app-text/tetex app-text/ptex ) ... which doesn't look very elegant to me.

However, the additional requirements are often different, e.g., texlive-latexextra or texlive-genericrecommended which means we'd need virtuals for all of them.
