we sat here for a good 30s on a machine that ended up actually having a satisfactory install, weird:

 7192 ?        S      0:00      \_ sshd: dank@pts/1

The package wasn't actually installed, so the delay here was it going and grabbing the stuff it needed from upstream. This actually kinda works, I guess? An annoying delay, though.

By my recent experience, the thing we ought do is rewrite these using pandoc.
