I see there was a dpkg upload today, but it didn't fix this. Please, is
there any chance that this patch could be applied before sarge? dselect
makes bad mistakes due to this bug, and it will result in much confusion
if it makes it into a stable release.

I've been using a locally-built version of dselect with this patch
applied for the last three weeks, and have had no problems whatsoever.

Thanks,
