I actually used to use dselect for everything, but have recently switched over to aptitude after forcing myself to use it for a while to see how it worked. I don't think I'll go back now as I have found out to everything I could do in dselect and more with aptitude. The only thing that I use apt-get for is for situations at the moment. With only half of KDE3.1 in sid, aptititude would remove kmail etc if I let it, so if a really need to install the odd single package I use apt-get. Normally I wouldn't though. - -- Alan Chandler [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.1 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+T5+FuFHxcV2FFoIRApsMAJ4qGkq3it5o6qBxP4qrH3lE5piN9QCeKpxf 2pIMdr20L7pcKuvB/ZN11IY= =kvDH -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
