Hmmm - I gave this a try, but it didn't work - I continued to get the
same error as previously.
I tried just a plain apt-get upgrade as well, but this has caused lots
of other problems (eg, X doesn't work now, there's also some failed
dependencies like gnome-core appearing to depend on a version of
libcapplet0 that doesn't exist yet) and I think I might retreat to 2.2r3
until I understand things a bit better.
