I think what he means is that when you install from CD, it rolls through
the CD and checks every packages against the list of selections, like:
Skipping deselected package: bash
Skipping deselected package: bang
Skipping deselected package: beat
Rather than just going to the packages it wants to install.
I don't think that apt-get fixes this, because apt-get doesn't let you
install from CD. The issue is really with dselect's CD install method.
