dselect hang

[Max]

I'm using the apt method in dselect, and for some reason, dselect just
hangs whenever I try to update or install packages.  It doesn't give
me any sort of status indication, but I can see that the apt-get
process is taking up a huge chunk of the CPU.  Has anyone seen this
before?  I'm using potato with kernel 2.0.35 and dselect version
1.4.0.31 on a SS 2.

Thanks,
    Max
