(Except if there is no contrib or non-free for those sites, whereupon
one will cause the above error.)

Well, instead of using it as a phone (what if someone important calls? :-) )
I plan to use it as a PDA, so want some of the 'too Free to be Free'
stuff, etc. like perhaps:
$ vrms
              Non-free packages installed on jidanni1
emacs22-common-non-dfsg   GNU Emacs shared, architecture independent, non-DFSG i
gcc-doc-base              several GNU manual pages
glibc-doc-reference       GNU C Library: Documentation
make-doc                  Documentation for the GNU version of the "make" utilit
xpdf-chinese-traditional  Portable Document Format (PDF) suite -- traditional Ch
              Contrib packages installed on jidanni1
cpp-doc                   documentation for the GNU C preprocessor (cpp)

Well, too bulky. OK, never mind. No big deal.
