   Thank you for the suggestion.  Unfortunately, it did not work for me.   
   After running apt-get with --reinstall, I got the following output:   
      
   Preparing to replace automake1.9 1.9.6-1 (using   
   ..../automake1.9_1.9.6-1_all.deb) ...   
      
      
   Unpacking replacement automake1.9 ...   
   Setting up automake1.9 (1.9.6-1) ...   
      
   ktneely@piglet:~/News$ automake --version   
   automake (GNU automake) 1.4-p6   
      
      
   So, it still appears to be 1.4 when run with --version, and does not   
   understand the '-h' switch.  I suppose I could download a tarball and   
   compile the program myself, but I like the fact that this server has   
   been so stable (a prolonged power outage is the only reason it has not   
   been up for 260 days straight) and attribute a good part of that to me   
   not mucking about beyond the contrib repositories.   
      
   I do not know enough about automake, but it confuses me that it says   
   1.9 is installed, and the system only presents 1.4.  Until now, I   
   never had a problem with it and did not touch it.
