Use the 'M' key to mark the packages as packages "M"anually marked --
that you want installed. When a package has been "A"utomatically pulled
in to resolve a dependency such as on the Gnome and KDE meta-packages,
it will display an "A" in its status column at the far left. You can
switch any packages between these states at any time.
