I started using the easy_e17 script some months ago. I try to stay within 50 - 
100 updates of the current SVN revision, and using easy_e17.sh -u 
--packagelist=full makes it very easy. I may have dropped a package along the 
way because I was having a problem, which may have caused this recent problem.

Is there a more reliable way to stay up to date? This seems fine most of the 
time.
