Oh, who put GARNOME on their coverdisk? The few times I've heard of this
happening, they royally arsed it up. I wish they'd come and ask for help
first.

There are a few small issues with non-critical garballs in the 0.21.0
version of GARNOME (which builds 2.2). Just set the GARCHIVEDIR in
gar.conf.mk to point to where your tarballs are, and it won't download it
all again (unless you managed to download the .gz files - GARNOME wants .bz2
files).
If you have any troubles, post here. I can be extra nice to SLUGgers, you
see. garnome-list is a bit of a hell-hole at times. :-)
