Hrm. Maybe. I remember cutting out only the ia64 part.
I'll zip through the patch again.

<carlos goes to check>

Hrm. Time to start vaping source trees.
The only diff from the patches is the ia64 stuff. Which I've
fixed to use try_lock, so it's not necc anymore.

I am now sure that I've been using the dpkg tools incorrectly.
I will follow the steps you've outlined and do some more reading.

Thanks for the help M.

Cheers,
