It's a few hours later, and a lot of packages have appeared. But many
of the packages I've installed are still missing. IN particular,
monotone and botan (the ones I originally noticed) are still not there.
(not that I havent already installed them by other means; I'm in no
hurry)

I suspect it may take longer than a few minutes.
