>Description:
        There is a bug print/teTeX-share's distfile.  The `listings'
        package 
(http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/macros/latex/contrib/listings?filename=macros/latex/contrib/listings/&action=/tools/filesearch&catstring=macros/latex/contrib/listings/)
        is included in the tetex-texmf-2.0.2 tarball, but somehow
        listings.sty is missing!  (all other necessary files seem to be there,
        though)

>How-To-Repeat:
        - Download all compontent files of listings 1.3 (from the
           above-mentioned link) into your ${HOME}/texmf/tex/listings dir.
           (it is important you have version > 1.0, or the error doesn't
             occur, but it is probably not too important that it is
             exactly v 1.3)
        - From ${HOME}/texmf/tex/listings, run
            $ tex listings-1.3.ins
        - \usepackage{listings} in your document.
        - Run latex on your document, and see it give the following error.

>Fix:

The easiest way to fix it is to exclude the listings package and rely on the
user to install their own version of listings in their homedir.  Just remove
the entire directory: ${PREFIX}/share/texmf/tex/latex/listings

Now run latex again on your listings-using document.  It should work.

Here's a simple patch for print/teTeX-share:
