I don't know what the heck happened!? I didn't see anything go wrong
when I did the apt-get dist-upgrade this morning, but perhaps I missed
it because of the license-agreement spew from the java installation?
Anyway, after I read this I downloaded the coreutils*.deb package
manually and installed it via "dpkg -i" everything seems to be back to
normal now.
