It is :). BTW, if you were running into errors also run "dpkg --configure
-a" to make sure that everything that got installed also got configured.
Recently I've been needing that a lot :(.

Generally if an install breaks it's a bug. What I was trying to point out
though, is that there's another resource for finding out how to get around a
bug. You found the message you quoted, which was great. I just wanted to
point out another resource along with examples to show you that it can be
helpful.
