And these are in that category, emphasis on gory.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
freecad : Depends: libsoqt4-20 (>= 1.6) but 1.5.0-2 is to be installed
Depends: python-pivy (>= 0.5.0~v609hg-2) but 0.5.0~v609hg-1 is to be installed
freecad-doc : Depends: qt4-dev-tools but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
root@coyote:/home/gene#
=====================
That last E: is in error on synaptics, there are no broken or held packages, and it
had zero problems installing this mornings updates, about 9 files IIRC.
The real problem is the versions of libsoqt4 and python-pivy are not
fresh enough to meet the dependencies. Am I missing a line in my
/etc/sources.list that would have/show the versions it needs?

I've since re-enabled 2 of the commented out lines above, however the
http.us.debian.net sites seem to have gone away, none can be accessed
from this us site.
Thanks.
