Package: dpkg Version: 1.4.0.34 I was running an XSession, launched as an ordinary user. Inside an xterm I used su to become root, and then ran dselect. Upon resizing the xterm window while in the Select section of dselect, dselect exited with the following error message:
dselect: getch failed: Interrupted system call Hope that helps! -- System Information Debian Release: 2.1 Kernel Version: Linux francis 2.0.36 #2 Sun Feb 21 15:55:27 EST 1999 i586 unknown Versions of the packages dpkg depends on: ii libc6 2.1.1-0.1 GNU C Library: shared libraries ii libncurses4 4.2-3 Shared libraries for terminal handling ii libstdc++2.9 2.91.60-5 The GNU stdc++ library (egcs version)
