Do you fellas have 'apt-listbugs' installed? Don't know if it would have
helped in this case, but running SID one should have that package
installed. Lets you know before hand if bugs have been filed - of course
if none have, it's still buyer beware on SID. Hope you all filed bug
reports. ;-D

I'm on testing, so have nothing to report in terms of the issues in this
thread.
