This showed up this morning with a couple of others (lftp, screen), so
I did apt-get update ; apt-get upgrade.  That picked up the others but
not ethereal.  Why is that?  I had ethereal installed, though I've
never used it.

It was easily sorted out with apt-get install ethereal; I just wonder
why it didn't come along with the other two updates.
