Re: dselect thinks it is not installed....
no, I've not been hacking. I did upload sources for testing which
seemed to become mixed up with stable and testing sources showed
dselect as a separate package. Here's how it looks on stable/woody:
linux:~# dpkg -S `whereis dselect`
dpkg: *dselect:* not found.
dpkg: /usr/bin/dselect
dpkg: /usr/share/man/man8/dselect.8.gz
linux:~#
linux:~# dpkg -l dselect
