Re: dselect ftp upgrade
If you read the HOWTO, I think it says that this is a VERY BAD idea
because the packages must be installed in the proper order and the ftp
method of dselect has no concept of what order to install packages in.
In other words, if you try to do it with dsleect, you could destroy your
system.
Do it manually.
