Hi, I noticed a circular dependency:  the textutils package includes the 
sort command, but its configure script depends on sort already being 
present.

My ISP is converting users to a virtual server which currently does not 
have sort, so I ran into this problem, but was able to work around it by 
creating a trivial replacement for sort using perl.

Regards,
