At least with the "dpkg-query -W" step close to the end of the page, I have
found some problems. Sometimes there are second fields in output lines which
certainly would confuse aptitude? (Pass the output through awk '{print $1}' ?)
Otherwise at first and second glance the instructions look fine. I will
sacrifice a live system later this week...
