'Progress' report:
I fired up reportbug and it tells me that I don't have the latest version
of util-linux installed. So, maybe I should do this before I bother the
maintainer, yes?
But aptitude tells be I am up-to-date, except for some gnome stuff held back.
I guess I'm going to learn more about apt-get, aptitude, etc. before I make
progress on sfdisk problem. But, I am working on it.
