even so... now, i get warnings about locale (a lot) and then

<excerpt>
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
	LANGUAGE = (unset),
	LC_ALL = (unset),
	LC_CTYPE = "en_US",
	LANG = "C"

so apparently the trouble is

dist-upgrade met with a great deal more success (he said,

Curious about your NETWORK TRAFFIC? There's a whole bunch of
ways to monitor it: iptraf, showtraf, netwatch, tcpview, statnet,
or even
	tcpdump | grep 'what you want to see'
	lsof -i | grep 'LISTEN'
For network statistics try "mrtg". See the ethernet section
