Hello all, can anyone tell how to reset the state of the packages to reset what the system to what it currently is ? After selecting way to many packages (through deps) in dselect and Ctr-C-ing, I don;t know how to make dselect (in fact dpkg I think) forget about the choices I made and reflect the state of my system. Instead of that, it insists on installing 500+ packages and desinstalling 200 of them. I tried to remove all my apt-sources and select all the available pkgs (which in my mind would have been the installed packeages) but it only made matters worse.
So I stopped using dselect and just use apt-get but it is not really as practical (in paticular when it comes to suggested packages). Thanks for your help David -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
