You may like aptitude; it has a similar (though more familiar to me)
user interface to dselect, but it's closer tied to APT, and is aware
that there could potentially be multiple versions of a package. Rumor
is that it's not perfect about tracking a particular release ("I
usually run testing but I have an unstable APT source too"), but I
personally don't do this.
