first off, i'm sorry about the problems.  i should
have tested the nupas->nupas upgrade path more
thoroughly. contrib isn't quite the right tool for a direct
replacement.

sometimes replica gets in its own way.  usually when
it gets confused, i remove /dist/replica/$x and
/dist/replica/client/$x* and often remove any potentially
conflicting files.  i suppose it would be better to get
replica to tell me about conflicts and use -s.

i've attached the prototype for the files included
in the replica perhaps this will help.  you can get
a full listing of what + expands to from a listing of
/n/contrib/quanstro/root/...
