First of all, thanks for your help.
What I'd like to do, is to avoid downloading the packages I have
already got (I've got a 56k dialup connection).

I think I could download all non-free, non-US/non-free pacakges,
then, comparing the two Packages file (the one I have and the one
on the ftp site), decide what contrib  packages I need.

OK?

Thanks,
