I don't have any problem at all with the interface of dselect, but I wish it would not depend on the correctness of the Packages.gz file to operate correctly. WIBNI there was an option where dpkg --avail -R were run on the three directories given in ``[A]ccess'' and dselect used that information? I think that could be done without too much restructuring in the dselect code (though I know none of it). Disregard if you don't like this suggestion, kai -- Life is hard and then you die.
