If you're installing packages using dselect or an APT-based tool, dependencies will be automatically downloaded and installed. If you're using dpkg directly (few people do but it's useful to know about) they won't be. > Why some packages is not installable ?!! I don't know. If you're going to ask this question, you should generally tell us what Debian version you're using; if you have things besides official Debian sources in your /etc/apt/sources.list, that's probably useful to mention too. > Why I can't install quota package ?! > > Why I can't find netselect package _?! So I'd recommend against using 'apt-get install' to try to install things directly, especially if you're not entirely clear on what you're looking for. 'aptitude' (in the aptitude package) gives a reasonably nice console UI that will let you search through packages and install them. In the particular cases you list, it sounds like you don't have a complete Debian set available. Maybe you're trying to use a partial CD set, or maybe your local Debian mirror is having issues. In the particular cases you list (mysql-server, quota, netselect), I'd think those 'apt-get install' commands should work. Certainly 'quota' and 'netselect' both exist as packages. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
