I think <the query> has to be replaced by something like 
<cat query list>.  I'll give it a try.  In this case I had 
to edit the list as I was changing architecture from i386 to 
x86_64 (can someone please come up with an acronym easier to 
type than x86_64?) i64? a64? 8664? x64? w64? 8byte? 8b? b8? 
ib8? 0x4?  I'm open to suggestion.  Of all of the above I 
like ib8 best, intel byte 8 architecture (native pointer 
size or word size).  Let the ia64 stay the same.

Thank you for a worthwhile suggestion.  I seem to end up 
doing this every 6 months, so I want to come up with an easy 
method.  Preupgrade is an option if there isn't an 
architecture change.
