Quote from the end of the page
<URL:http://www.debian.org/intro/why_debian.html>:
"Dselect (the front end to Debian's packaging system) is confusing to
learn." This is an active area of work. It is hoped that the new
package manager, apt, will be ready before the release of Debian 2.1.
Note: Apt, the replacement for dselect is getting rave reviews, No
other Linux distribution has anything like it. It currently works
well, and is waiting for the development of the front-end before being
released.
Maybe it's time to change this. :)
