So far I've tried all the above apart from the repair - I was hoping
to avoid this in case it f**ks up some of the configurations (LDAP,

trying to remember which config file to restore some are obvious but
others not. Plus I've got non-standard packages (from packman etc) on
there which I'm not sure repair will honour.

I've tried the repair option and it finds a problem with krb5 but it
can't fix it - the attempt to reinstall fails with the same error as
when I tried to update from the CLI.


If you have already done a _full_ manual fsck on this filesystem and you
still have a permission error as root then I would consider the
possibility of a disk hardware problem. I think you maybe need to
replace the disk.

B***cks - I was **sure** I did a full reiserfsck by hand on /usr but I've
just done one again and this time it's thrown up errors
requiring --rebuild-tree. I've done that, re-installed krb5 and we're
pretty well back up and running :)
