Resetting dselect
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hello All:
I had added bo to my pkgs list and set everything to hold (I thought). Two
questions.
1. Why does dselect seem to override holds on some pkgs? I hilighted the All
pkgs line and hit hold (=) so I could selectively make changes yet there were
a few pkgs here and there that remained in suggested status. Evedent when I
tried to d/l a couple of MB's of pkgs and saw a list of 20 or so pkgs scroll
past adding up to 40 MB's. I had to ^C and set them to hold one by one.
2. Now that I'm finished with that and want to d/l in suggested mode I can't
reset the pkgs to suggested mode (U). I'd really hate to have to reset them
one by one. Is there a quick way to reset the status? I've tried to mv the
status files out to be rebuilt but dselect just bombs out when I do that.
Thanks,
Have a good one.
