I'm not a good Debian owner.  I download and install 3rd party software. 
  I modify system configuration files.  I'm too lazy to identify and 
understand all of the ramifications of the two prior sentences, so 
reverting the changes so that a dist-upgrade can work cleanly is not 
practical.  Basically, I'm lazy.  I want to pop in a disk/USB, get to a 
known good state, and then start my butchery all over again.  ;-)
