Well, thanks. I am trying to avoid a clean re-install since its just
starting to be used now, and all the custom stuff (firewall, backups,
Apache, etc) we need to do has already been done. Ironically, that
prompted me to want to automate that customization process and why I
was playing with bzr to start with.

Overall, I love apt, but occasionally its really oddly difficult to
start with a clean slate.

I may do an apt purge, and then physical hunt and destroy for python
pieces.

Thanks again.
