Re: Woody: trying to overwrite `/usr/ ... /iso64101.res

I tried to install again this morning, and something new had hit the 
mirrors, but I still can't fully upgrade.

Here what happened

I just went in to dselect and tried to install that way, and things 
seem happy.

Everything installed nicely from there...

Any ideas on what's going on?  Why wasn't the debian-files package 
selected with apt-get upgrade when it was with dselect?
