apt is meant to be the default package management tool AFAIK
and even dselect uses it now, so apt should be able to work this
around

I'm doing the reverse... I keep spreading that apt is quite
easier to work with and I don't want to have to use dselect
to upgrade my system, apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
should do it, no?

would dselect really do it? I'll try that later but...
again, apt should've done it...
