Hi. If I just want to install 1 program from dselect, would I want to go through and put an = sign by the programs that are currently installed so it doesn't have to go through all the files when installing? I hope this question makes sense.
If you know exactly where the .deb package is, you can skip making it have to go through all the programs....Go to the directory where the .deb file is, and type:
dpkg -i debianpackagefilename.deband it should install the package. If it comes up with errors, then I reccmmend using dselect, otherwise, it should be fine.
