[Panic] dpkg-ftp upgrade removed required packages

[Sudhakar Chandrasekharan <thaths@netscape.com>]

I upgraded my hamm machine yesterday using dpkg-ftp.  I now find that the
following important (at least to me) packages are listed under the 'Removed'
section -

timezone	7.55-2
libg++27-dev	2.7.2.1-8
libgdbm1-dev	1.7.3-19


Under 'Avail. ver' nothing is listed.  Is this the result of the disk crash
@ debian.org that I keep hearing about?
