Path And Checksum Errors In A Few Packages

Well, p5-finance-quote installed but I still had the not opening
complaint for librsvg, gnome-themes, gnome-icon-theme, and gnome-speech.
So I ran the clean command on those packages and I am awaiting the
results of rerunning the upgrade command on them.

Thank you for replying so promptly. I like that. Nothing many lists are
like this one. Do not change.
