when I use dselect to try and get kernel-package, i get into an infinite loop with dependencies on packages perl and libc5. I + them and they get *, but when I enter, I go back to dependencies and there they are again, still showing *!
I X'd back and tried again from start, chose ftp, looked at packages, kernel-package was STILL selected, and I STILL got into the same boat when i tried to continue. Trying to purge those two packages was the bright idea I had, but I soon realized I would have to remove most of my system once the dependencies were ruled out :( I'm trying again to see if I can get kernel-package and it's 3 dependencies (the source and that other thing...) then I Q'd on the perl... *sigh* Now it's downloading all kinds of packages I didn't ask for, cron3.0, perl5.003, dpkg1.4, etc... What did I screw up, and is there some way to globally reset dselect, as I believe I have done something to really confuse it :( Thanks for any help.. I'll keep working on this end :) Regards, Kendrick -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
