Really I want to move to 8.0 (and have had to put 8.0 RC1 on some new

significant upheaval (8 machines to migrate), and there is the
possibility of unintended breakages, as with the move from 5.x to 7.0.

X is stock off-the-ISO-image.   Is there an efficient way to check for
extra/newer libraries?   Of course what would be really nice would be
