If a bunch of packages have been uninstalled, what is an automated way
of reinstalling them using /var/lib/dpkg/status-old or
/var/backups/dpkg.status.* ?
I see a lot of material mentioning status but nothing about precisely
how to use it.

But, I would try the macro first on a copy of the file /var/lib/dpkg/status and

Ok
Reboot didn't fix it.
But I commented a load of the sources out of my /etc/apt/sources.list,
did a apt-get update, and now it all works again.
I have now uncommented the sources I commented out, and it still works.
Very strange.
Thanks.

My machine normally crashes whenever I exit X, (the nvidia drivers I've always
