1) Remove purifyeps from TL.
That'd be ok by me.
2) Include pstoedit in TL. Why do you think it's not simple to do?
I realized later that "simple" wasn't the right word. "Inappropriate"
is the right word :). We (I) don't want to provide general-purpose
non-TeX-related binaries (except for a minimal set on Windows, not
relevant here); TL is not an operating system. E.g., we don't want to
provide xpdf and its related utilities either.
3) Keep purifyeps in TL but without pstoedit.
I don't have any particular objection to that, either, if it can be made
to work -- see Rolf's follow-up that I just forwarded to you.
Thanks,
karl
