You don't have to use dselect, you can do it all from the command line, which is nice when you only want to get one package. You can upgrade to a new version of debian with just one command (supposedly will handle libc upgrade without getting the system into an inconsistent state). > i always have used dftp to update my stuff ..works great. > Yes it does, but it lacks some of the advanced features of apt.
