There you can press "+" to deselect those packages which are being removed, or you can press "_" to deselect those packages which are being installed. When you have the list as you'd like (or as close as you can because of dependencies) then you press "g" again to install/uninstall those packages. I hope that made sense. -- Raquel ============================================================ We have been down this road before in this country.
