When you say "manually", do you mean you think I went and downloaded it
via ftp and then ran dpkg to install it? I don't mean to insult, I just
want to clarify, because I did it through "apt-get update; apt-get
upgrade"

This seems something of a chore, but I guess I'll have to do it. How
often do such misalignments occur when using apt-get update/upgrade
primarily for security updates? I would have thought it would make sense
to place related updates on the server in one go, no?
