And also of the texinfo package ;-) And on the list!

I just suggested two possible options, both I don't mind:
- make cm-super (the full set) a "recommends" of
  texlive-fonts-recommended
  This will install it automatically unless the user explicitly disables
  installation of recommended packages.

- make cm-super a dependency of texinfo (next version, in Debian)
  that way the package will be pulled in in any case

I am fine with doing both.

All the best

Norbert
