Is there any way to restart apt-get from a postinst/preinst script, or to restart it immediately after the installation with specified options? I imagine a debconf dialog box asking: - Configure and install XFree 3.3.6 now? - Configure and install XFree 4.0.x now? The first option would install the current task-x-window-system (with anXious configuration), the other one would install the XFree-4.x equivalents. > [1] Are you really suggesting to include Mozilla M18 (released September 2000) > instead of Netscape 4.77?

Another idea could be Opera, but it is evil non-free payware and should not be included on Debian CDs - not yet.
