Anyone got an idea why the ipmasq package in stable would fail to
install? I'v got an old machine (486 vintage with an AMD 5x86 processor
@133MHz) that I use as a firewall running latest stable. While 
attempting to install ipmasq it goes through this series of events:

dmz:~# apt-get clean
dmz:~# apt-get -f install ipmasq
Reading Package Lists... Done
Building Dependency Tree... Done
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  ipmasq 
0 packages upgraded, 1 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0  not upgraded.
Need to get 47.4kB of archives. After unpacking 455kB will be used.
Get:1 http://http.us.debian.org stable/main ipmasq 3.5.10 [47.4kB]
Fetched 47.4kB in 28s (1673B/s)                                                        
                                                     
Preconfiguring packages ...
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg exited unexpectedly

The only thing I can think of is that there is some sort of previously 
unseen hardware problem - but I hope that's not the case!

Any help would be greatly appricated!

Ron
