What are you trying to do? Are you trying to get lib6 or some other package from woody or sid for your potato system? That will not work, if that's what you're doing. dselect is trying to download all the other packages because they depend on a specific version of libc. If you install libc from woody or sid, you need to upgrade all the packages that depend on libc. That's what dselect is trying to do. If you only upgraded libc, everything would break, because the new libc is not compatible with the old one. Of course, if that's not what you're trying to do, then you can probably ignore my advice. But you should provide more information so people can help you figure out exactly why dselect is doing what it's doing. noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
