THANK YOU!!!!!!
I managed to get most things to work by going to ICY to install sed and grep, then returning to Cydia to upgrade sed and grep to the latest versions first. Then, I was able to install the essential updates in Cydia manually, except for Cydia itself. I tried toupgrade Cydia in ICY, but they have an old version (and old versions of everything else too WTF?) and I just ended up with a working iphone with a hosed Cydia.
I uninstalled Cydia via ICY and did a re-jailbreak with 0.71 and I got a semi working old Cydia that was good enough to upgrade itself. Best part was not having to restore and resync again!
Hope they come out with a redsn0w 0.73 that includes the 2938-56 version of Cydia from the get go.
Also what is up with ICY not seeing new versions of packages? Doesn't it point to the same package sources as Cydia? Everything I use and need had older versions on ICY, SBSettings, Mobile Substrate, Winterboard, Cydia, etc. It seems anything that has been updated since 3.0 released if not earlier is still an old version even after you refresh the sources.
