Good idea.

	Here are the packages that need to be rebuilt:
	dash delete dviware emacs lpr mf mh moira neos prototype ssh tex
	tex-fonts texmf-misc xlogin zephyr kermit tarmail wcl

In case anyone is curious, here is a summary of the changes:

1. Each and every one of those packages had "Requires:
   athena-filesystem" changed to "Prereq: athena-filesystem".

2. xmh.1 was added to the xmh package.

3. lpd was added to the lpr package.  (Of course, this change is still
   in source-tree wait.)

In summary, the packages currently on sipb-nfs are extremely close to
what they should be.

Sal.
