Folks,

Well to put it simply "I shot myself in the foot"!

How do I recover a completely destroyed /var/cache/apt directory? I 
messed up with an sudo rm -rf to get rid of some files in /var...

How do I rebuild the information on installed packages?? Can I copy one 
from another system?

With egg on my face,
Jay

PS Thanks for the help about the NFS entry in my /etc/fstab
