I did look around and noticed xlib was not marked for installation so I marked it +. I also noticed a message about correcting dependencys go by... after about three more runs of dselect all the errors sorted themselves out and the packages installed... I had previosly run dselect serveral times in a row with no luck so I don't know what happened...either one of the developers fixed some dependency issues or it was the xlib package.

I wonder, have I screwed something up? This morning I upgraded using aptitude and experienced something similar. There were three serious bug reports: libmailtools-perl perl mime-support and so when given the option to abandon the upgrade, I did so. However, back in the aptitude screen, it showed only a few packages to be upgraded but a larger number shown as upgradeable but not flagged as such. I manually changed their status to upgrade and re-ran the upgrade (having held the three packages with serious bugs). Everything, worked fine after that. So I don't think your sources.list is necessarily the problem. It is a while since I used dselect but you may be able to force the upgrade as I did. Alternatively, you could try aptitude. It takes a little while to get used to but it makes the sid upgrades less stressful - is it going to break? ;) Its interactive nature means that you can abandon the upgrade should you receive unnerving warnings.
