Hi
I am using ustable, with kernel 2.4.5. Aptitude shows many more packages
than deselect . Moreover while deselect shows no broken dependencies
aptitude shows that some installed packages are broken ("iB" in red).
I am perplexed by this. Any ideas what may be going wrong ? Which

Hi,
How can one download a group of webpages hyperlinked by cgi scripts (rather than
simple hrefs) . Note - wget chokes on this, in the sense it downloads some of
the cgi forms itself, instead of querrying the server and obtaining the page.
Is
there any other program like wget ?
