It is shown that for v ≠ 6 , 7 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , there exists an optimal packing with triples on v points that contains no Pasch configurations. Furthermore, for all v ≡ 5 (mod 6), there exists a pairwise balanced design of order v , whose blocks are all triples apart from a single quintuple, and that has no Pasch configurations amongst its triples.
