In dselect, the screen is split into 2 parts, top one lists all the
packages you have, bottom one provides a short description.
When you scroll down to a particular package, look into the middle of a
screen, right in between two windows, it will say if the package is
installed, and what is it's status (marked for installation, removal, etc)
 Hope this helps.
