undo a dselect?



In order to get *one* package from the unstable branch,
I added the unstable entry to the sources.list and run
dselect. For some reason, not only the *one* required
package from the unstable branch has been selected, but
a whole lot of other stuff to be updated (like samba,
xserver and the like).
However, I guess, that's not what I want (believe me,
I had enough to do for getting my video card running
after upgrading some packages from the unstable branch).

So I stopped dselect while downloading via Ctrl-C,
and quit dselect.

I've got two questions:
1) how can I get dselect to ignore the settings I (somehow)
selected during the last dselect session, and

2) how do I get dselect only using certain things from
the unstable branch, but others not?

Thanks in advance,
Holger
