[ale] lots of patches on Ubuntu today

[Jim Kinney]

It's been infected with the "high school kissing disease - mono". Use your

add them back and let the package manager pull the best choices for
requirements.

My systems here often get a large number of updates at a whack depending on
what packages are installed.
