also the plain simple reason that woody's and sarge's libc6 are
incompatible. we even coined a term for people installing sarge/sid
s/w onto woody machines stupidly, unknowingly, or otherwise:
bobbitting. comes from that story about that woman doing something to

"We're not talking about the same thing," he said. "For you the world is
weird because if you're not bored with it you're at odds with it. For me
the world is weird because it is stupendous, awesome, mysterious,
unfathomable; my interest has been to convince you that you must accept
responsibility for being here, in this marvelous world, in this marvelous
desert, in this marvelous time.  I wanted to convince you that you must
learn to make every act count, since you are going to be here for only a
short while, in fact, too short for witnessing all the marvels of it."
