[vox-tech] Apt-get vs. Dselect

[Rick Moen]

As Peter was suggesting, I actually had in mind aptitude's command-line
mode, as an alternative to the apt-get [, apt-zip, apt-cdrom] utility.

Aptitude's ncurses full-screen mode _is_ a damned sight better than
dselect, but I prefer none of the above.  ;->
