I was trying to use LaTeX with the listings package. This used to work
fine, but now the listings package does not appear to be installed.
The directory
/usr/athena/share/texmf/tex/latex/listings
exists, but the file listings.sty is not present.
This may be due to the LaTeX distribution included with the athena update.
I know that there were some problems with teTeX due to some licensing
issues, but I thought they were resolved:

The solution is simply to include the missing files, which can be found at
CTAN:
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/listings/
then process by running:
latex listings.ins
to generate listings.sty etc. and
latex listings.dtx
several times to generate the documentation, which should be placed in
/usr/athena/share/texmf/doc/latex/listings/
(Though the documentation seems to be there presently.)
