[Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@datasync.com>] Re: problem with dselect and the "dists" hierarchy
Do you think someone could resolve this and fix it, even on a NMU of
dpkg?
BTW, is the CVS repository caught up with the current releases? It'd
be nice to have a dpkg available which is build from CVS just to be
sure.

Oh, I see. Well, that is even easier to fix ;-) A simple
search and replace should work, I think, from a perusal of the
script.
