By the way, does someone knows why cm-super is listed as a dependency of 
print/teTeX while it is obviously *not* necessary to run teTeX and is a
very big download? 
Notably since there exist other conversions of the Computer Modern fonts 
to Type1 requiring infinitely less space than cm-super, for example:
