You never replied to my question about step 6 though (is it a "one time" command or do I have to type this every time I perform an update?) I've been typing it in every time.

The only problem with that is that things can get selected without your knowledge. So you need to check every single item every time you want to install even just one package. Or is this what Yaakov meant above? Does the long shell command (step 6 on the homepage) somehow stop the 'automatic selection' process? I did recently do two installations in rapid succession (5 mins apart) and didn't re-type it in between them - but that's the only time recently when I omitted a step.
