    Actually, I meant before I even select anything. I fire up dselect, and it
has already marked packages for installation, upgrade, removal, etc. I haven't
done a thing yet and it's making decisions. That's the part that I don't like.
Can someone justify this behaviour, and tell me how to disable it in case I'd
like to think for myself?
