Got it, but rpm claimed it was already installed so I used the --force
to freshen it.
apt-get upgrade returns this, a mess I made several months ago because
stuff couldn't find the pango(s) that was installed.

And what will the -f option do, the manpages are in an odd location
I've not added to my $MANPATH settings yet.
So I ran apt-get update and got this surprise!

Apparently that version of apt, downloaded from freshrpm.org, built
supposedly for FC1, thinks its running on, or is built, for a RH8
system! Humm, no files dated today in /etc/apt either:

But, its exactly as is contained in the packages according to mc.
Since the version isn't in the apt/apt.conf file, apparently I have
something leftover from rh8 telling it its still rh8, but what would
that be?
Humm, /etc/apt/sources.list does NOT contain a group of entries for
FC1 - Yarrow! WTF?
I repeat, I got these apt-get rpms from freshrpms.net half an hour
ago, from a link labeled for FC1 on top of the web page. Broken link
obviously, so where *are* the good ones?

Thanks Serge, any clues are appreciated. And I'll go fix my $manpath.
