   After logging in, becoming superuser, and a little trial-
and-error with chmod, ls -l now gives

-rwSr-xr-- 1 root root 298544 Dec 3 15:03 dbus-daemon-launch-helper

   Would running find in some way, perhaps followed by ls -l
and grep, be useful in identifying other potential disasters?

   Or should I take a flying leap with another run of
apt-get update ?
