I believe, that "apt-get install <package>=<version>" works as well. Or: "apt-get install <package>/<distribution>" with distribution = stable or testing or unstable. No need to switch to aptitude, IMHO. But let dselect rest in peace :~) (Another common aptitude advantage was its automatic handling of orphaned packages, but apt-get does the same since some time.) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
