Extra in what regard?  I can't do an apt-get upgrade or apt-get 
dist-upgrade because of udev problems (I compile my own kernels 
here, and I am still trying to get around to getting a "modern" 
enough kernel that udev can work with).  I don't NEED any extra 
packages, as most of what I do personally is emacs/LaTeX or 
emacs/DocBook.  But, I often install other stuff because it helps 
if someone sends me a DOC (or other M$ file).
