Description of problem:
The "algorith" package from tetex-latex seems to be missing from
Fedora Core 1.

I expected the files:
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/algorith/algorithm.sty
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/algorith/algorithmic.sty

to be in the package tetex-latex-2.0.2-8, however, they are not. They
are nowhere else on the file system, either.

They were in the package tetex-latex-1.0.7-66 (RedHat 9), and earlier
versions of RedHat (7.3, for instance).

I have installed all RPMS related to TeX from Fedora Core 1, yet no
algorithm package.

This may be an addition to bug 108425.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tetex-latex-2.0.2-8

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install tetex-latex-2.0.2-8
2. check to see if /usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/algorith/*.sty exist
    

Actual Results:  The files are not there.

Expected Results:  The files
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/algorith/algorithm.sty
/usr/share/texmf/tex/latex/algorith/algorithmic.sty
should exist

Additional info:

See the TeX Catalogue Online description of the package "algorithms":
http://www.tug.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/algorithms.html

The files expected are here:
http://www.tug.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/algorithms/algorithm.sty
http://www.tug.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/algorithms/algorithmic.sty

I have diffed these against the files distributed with
tetex-latex-1.0.7-66 (RedHat 9) and they are identical.

When I install the files manually, they work in my environment.

This may be an addition to bug 108425.

It was removed (upstream) due to its license.
