I just bumped up against a problem with a squeeze system. It's ppc, and
everyone has dropped the non-x86/x64 archives. That made it hard to
install tcpdump to do some investigative work.

Interestingly the package files are still all present, so after an
apt-get update ; apt-get install foo I just put the package names it
can't download into google and they turn up in odd corners of the net.
