:) To the best of my knowledge, dselect was the first package manager for debian and is still there for the sake of maybe some packages depending on it, or users preferring it (for whatever reason, and if only because they've learned their dselect and don't want to start over with aptitude). I'd almost added something about serious-looking dselect and fancy aptitude, but on second thought it may be that coninued use of Debian has altered my frame of reference. Though for all I know this may actually be true on a braille terminal. cu, Schnobs -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
