I am hand selecting my packages, but I am having a problem with libncurses4 and libncurses5. Until I know more about this, I suppose it won't harm anything to just install both versions. However, if I try to remove libncurses4, the dependancy resolution also forces the removal of nvi.
It is my understanding the nvi is the linux version of vi, which I prefer to use above any other editor. Will nvi work with libncurses5? If so, will it hurt anything to 'manually' force the removal of libncurses4 in the future? dselect - main package listing ## the following packages are installed and marked for install: *** Req base libncurses5 5.0-6.0pota *** Req base ncurses-base 5.0-6.0pota *** Req base ncurses-bin 5.0-6.0pota ## the following packages are not installed, but marked for install: n* Imp oldlibs libncurses4 4.2-9 n* Std admin ncurses-term 5.0-6.0pota Thanks in advance for your help. - gladimir
