OK - now I see the situation you had there. You need to run dftp
installed after dftp unpack, but before dftp clear. This will update the
.installed file with the packages you just installed. Again, it's all in
the man page.
Good luck,
Tom
I really haven't used dftp for a while myself, but according to the man
page, the clear option doesn't clear uninstalled packages from the
archive.
dftp uses it's own /root/packages/.installed file to know what packages
are installed. It may have been that your dftp /root/packages/.installed
file

I did what you told me. After doing
dftp getselect
it got all the packages, but then ist stopped, so next I did
dftp unpack
Which kept the system busy for some minutes. Since the packages were still in
/root/packages
