I'd prefer trying to fix it somehow, installing is never a quick thing, 
especially on these old systems. If you like me to test me a fresh 
install ISO that is another thing.

when you say "puzzle this back". Were there transition packages that I 
"miss" somehow?

I can add a specific snapshot in time just as a source, right? but I 
need get a certain date containing certain packages I guess, what should 
I look for to find the correct snapshot?

Could be that I didn't upgrade... 6 months for sure, perhaps more or 
maybe I performed selective upgrades skipping certain critical things. I 
remember reading issues and thus was scary about updating this iBook 
which has a PPC750
