Will dpkg 1.4 work under buzz?

[amos@dsi.co.il (Amos Shapira)]

Hello,

I'm encountering some annoying (and apparently well-known) problems
with dselect from dpkg 1.2.14elf (e.g. after a search the arrow keys
loose their function).

I wander if it is safe to install one of the 1.4 version of dpkg on
my mostly buzz-fixed  system.

Thanks,

--Amos
