When a package is on "hold", nothing touches it. Not dselect, not apt,
not dpkg. Not unless you over-ride it, anyways ;)

You might also want to check out 'stormpkg', which is at least available
in Sid(unstable). It's a nice GTK+-based package manager. It implements
dselect-type functionality, but in an (at least for me) understandable
form.
