I prefer dselect for the one task that I use it for, and that's dist-upgrades with the dependency resolution screen. The rest of the time I use wajig. The only thing that I can't do that I wish I could (And someone please fill me in if you know of a way) is remember which packages got brought in for installation of package 'a'. So when I remove package 'a' it'll remove it and all of the packages that were brought in with it. -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY!
