Those of you who do not see this error, you lucked out--closer/better connections to various servers involved. You would not notice such a wordaround. Examples: Python stuff--I can upgrade two, not more, at one gulp. vlc--upgrade installed a libass3. Go the error. If I did libass3 by itself, worked ok, then after this, vlc packages upgraded ok. I cannot upgrade gcc4.3 because any one package pulls in all the others which is too many for that server/connection. So I can never really upgrade.
