None of the packages were installed or only a subset? What was the output of "sudo apt-get dselect-upgrade" ? Can you attach your dpkg.selection and the output of "dpkg --get-selections" on your 12.10 installation after having tried the --set-selections ? Did youn "sudo dpkg --set-selections < dpkg.selection" output any error message ? I'm trying to find out whether dpkg is not recording the selections or if apt-get is not acting on them.
