[tex-live] tikz libraries

Hello,

I found that there is a missing file in one of texlive packages (pgf):
	tikzlibrarypathreplacing.code.tex
Making a symlink from the file 
	tikzlibrarydecorations.pathreplacing.code.tex
in directory:
	/dane/texlive/2008/texmf-dist/tex/generic/pgf/libraries/pgflibrarydecorations.pathreplacing.code.tex
makes the following simple construction work:
\draw[decorate,decorations=brace] (0cm,0cm) -- (0cm,-1cm); (which I
needed) but with zigzag, triangles and possibly other decorations it
does not work. I haven't found the missing file in CTAN.

Best regards,
Marcin Szamotulski

here is a small tex file to reproduce this bug

\documentclass{article}
	\usepackage{tikz}
	\usetikzlibrary{pathreplacing,decorations}
\begin{document}
	\begin{center}
		\begin{tikzpicture}
		\draw[decorate,decoration=zigzag] 	(0cm,0cm) -- (0cm,-2cm);
		\draw[decorate,decoration=brace] 	(1cm,0cm) -- (1cm,-2cm);
		\end{tikzpicture}
	\end{center}
\end{document}
