Yes, that's what i see when i list the files owned by this package.
However, removing it from the status file will not remove the files.
And after that, i might be able to reinstall another package which
would take ownership of the files.  In a freshly installed Debian 1.3
which package owns the device files ?

Igor> you can just upgrade back to hamm version.

OK but it does not explain this strange behaviour (bug ?) of dselect.
Should i report it as a bug ?
