main and contrib with dselect
I have a problem with dselect. I have main and contrib on two CD's, as I'm
sure most people have. The problem is that dselect (unless there is an
option, i'm missing) expects main, contrib, non-free to be in the same
place. So, when I choose CD under [A]ccess methods, I have to say none for
either contib or main, depending on which CD i'm using.
And then [U]pdate to read the Packages file.
The problem then is that under [S]elect, the packages that I've installed
from main or contrib will then be marked as obsolete/local. This doesn't
affect the packages, I think , but it would be nice to have both.
I don't explain myself very well, but is there a work around?
