Bug#494291: texmaker: Favor texlive-* over latex-*

Package: texmaker
Version: 1.7.1-2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Attached is the patch used to fix the following issue: if none of
texlive or latex-* is installed already and this package is installed,
latex gets installed due to being mentioned first in recommends.

latex-* is a dummy package pulling in texlive, but more of if than
necessary.

I have taken the liberty to do a 1-day delayed NMU fixing this bug.

Hope that's ok with you :-)
