It looks like /etc/dpkg/dselect.cfg contains rubbish. What are the
contents of that file?

Yes. Following entry was found (only one line);

option = expert

I removed this line and then it worked normal.

What will be the funcetion of this line?

If formatted correctly (just a simple 'expert') it will cause dselect to always act like being invoked as 'dselect --expert' (Turns on expert mode, i.e. doesn't display possibly annoying help messages.)

See
man dselect.cfg
man dselect
for details.
