Thats not it; my initial post included a diff of dpkg -l from the previous
day (incremental backups are nice sometimes) and it showed most of it was
myth, and a few python and perl packages.

I definitely don't want to upgrade the nvidia package as I had an earlier
problem which caused the one system to freeze - the dreaded "Pink Screen of
Death."
ii  nvidia-glx
1:1.0.9639+2.6.22.4-14.10
NVIDIA binary XFree86 4.x/X.Org driver

I'll stay away from this one, it caused the freezes!
rc  nvidia-glx-new                             100.14.19+2.6.22.4-14.10
