I am trying to install packages that came along with my Debian 2.0 CD
(which is from one of the image CD). The installation utility program
"dselect" confuses me with all the different screens. So I tried dpkg
and it worked fine...for starters. I want to findout what are the
different options that I can use with dpkg. dpkg -i xxx.deb installs
the pakage but is there a option to make it check for the dependent
pakages also and install them?
Thanks for any help in advance.
