Rats, caught in an exaggeration!  I don't remember how many packages I
was being asked to install (at a minimum, the install didn't actually
work), but it may not have been hundreds.  If I ask for one package to
be installed and get more than a screenful of dependencies, it's
enough to scare me.  If anyone actually wants to see the full output
of my attempt to install nspluginwrapper, let me know....

In any case, there must be something different between our systems.
I'm pretty sure it wanted to install more than you listed, and
something on my system is causing it to fail.  Hm.  Thanks for the
info.  I will try adding glibc to the install command.

I will give that a try.  Thanks, guys.
