Subject: dselect should use --fix-missing
Organization: CNUCE-CNR, Via S.Maria 36, Pisa - Italy +39-050-593211
Package: dpkg
Version: 1.4.1.6
Severity: wishlist
When using the apt-get method, dselect should install packages using the
--fix-missing option to apt-get. When using a mirror, in fact, it is
very frequent to find inconsistencies in the archive status, due to
delays and mirroring problems, so I am very often forced to give up with
dselect and using `apt-get --fix-missing dselect-upgrade'.
