I believe what I did was just run an apt-get upgrade last week(or dist-
upgrade, I don't remember now which I tried first), prior to that I
didn't have any issues.

# ls -la debian_version
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10 Apr  1 11:47 debian_version

Running apt-get dist-upgrade also fails with the same error, as does
any apt-get at this point.  I've decided at this point to start over,
I removed debianutils and then had to reinstall gzip and debianutils
by hand.  I'm running a new upgrade now.

Thanks,
Adam
