Aha! Yes, that did the trick. I incorrectly assumed that dpsyco-lib and dpsyco-base would be dependent on dpsyco, and therefore should have been removed during the dpsyco purge. The dependencies were apparently the other way around. Also, I didn't really understand until now the full significance of the dlocate output.
