I wanted to install g77 and g77-doc on my system. As I got tired of swaping CD-s I set up apt to use the net instead. What happened was that after selecting g77 and g77-doc and choosing install in dselect it started not only installing g77, but upgrading 17 other packages. Among the different packages was samba which shouldn't have anything to do with g77.
Why does dselect automatically upgrade ? -- Preben Randhol -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- <http://www.pvv.org/~randhol/> +---+ "It is assumed that the reader is reasonably familiar with the |:-?| dpkg System Administrators' manual.
