Massive breakage on my system with April 1st updates

Wed Apr 2 00:01:15 UTC 2008

Not an April Fool's joke...  or if it is, I'm not laughing ;)

Today I lost:

- sound (due to latest kernel, linux-image-2.6.24-13-generic;
selecting 2.6.24-12 in GRUB gets sound working)

- most of my GNOME theme settings (because several theme-related
packages upgraded?)

- compiz (possibly related to one or both of the above?)

It is a bit disconcerting to me that this is happening so close to release...
