When I upgraded to slink a couple of weeks ago, I had a similar problem in dselect. (It seemed to be caused by a lack of free disk space.) I wound up deleting the request for both of the packages and everything that relied upon them and then starting over. I suppose another approach would have been to retrieve the packages manually and force an install. -- Jonathan Guthrie ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Brokersys +281-895-8101 http://www.brokersys.com/ 12703 Veterans Memorial #106, Houston, TX 77014, USA
