Description: 
 dftp: Linux "Debian Distribution" Packages Maintainer
 -  The purpose of this program is to make it easy to keep your local
 -  installation of Linux consistent with the Debian distribution
 -  available on many FTP sites, NFS mounts, or CD-ROM.  It does this by
 -  comparing the list of installed packages with those available by FTP
 -  or at a specified directory.  A list of packages, categorized to make
 -  selection easier, is then presented to the user to choose what to
 -  install.  All selected packages are then fetched if necessary (using
 -  FTP), verified for correctness, and then installed.
 -  .
 -  Dftp can also be run on a non-Debian machine in the case where the
 -  Debian machine does not have FTP access.  For this, stand-alone
 -  versions of dftp, in both "csh" and "perl" source, are available under
 -  /debian/contrib/tools.
Changes:
 -  Now written in Perl (thanks to Robert Browning)
