Heh, of course! :-)

 my repository is repository.maemo.org mistral free non-free.  Am I

I don't think you are missing something.

From the Log below, is looks as if dpkg-deb can not be executed, for
whatever strange reason.

There has been cases of file corruption, maybe that has happened to
you (note the strange empty symbol name in the relocation error).
Sometimes these corruptions went away when rebooting, so please try
rebooting when you haven't tried that yet.

If rebooting doesn't help, you could try getting the dpkg-deb binary
from somewhere and copy it over the corrupted one.  Or you have to
reflash.

I tried rebooting and then got a message about libstl-ttf2.0-0 not
being configured.  Of course, libstl-ttf2.0-0 didn't show up in the
package list, probably because I'd tried installing it before from
disk and that probably failed for some other reason.

At any rate, I went to xterm and did an apt-get install
libstl-ttf2.0-0, which seems to have gone ahead and set up my
python2.4-runtime.  Sweet!

Thanks Marius; don't abandon the barricades!
