It depends on which frontend you're using. I'm used to dselect (debian select); in dselect, you use a + to select a package, and a - to deselect it. You can also install packages if you know what they're called using apt-get. man apt-get for more information on this rather common method. - -- GnuPG public key available from http://ca.geocities.com/redvision.geo/gnupg_key.html -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFBJq9iMqUhaD+LmFcRAqAlAKCI3F+3RgcTf7HdNesetJBqC79k8QCfZAOh o+r0ddoTtoGDB7qC/0VjKxs= =4hc8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
