I had what looks like to be filesystem corruption on /. This new
system seems to be less stable than it should be.

I didn't choose to reinstall because that would entail more work than
I was willing to do. Although I considered it, even considered moving
back to Debian in the process. But i figured I'd stick with it.

I got a package called debsums (upon advice of another list member)
and ran a few debsums reports, grepped out the ones that were OK, and
then systematically reinstalled the packages that didn't match.
