Re: dselect via ftp probs

 Needed
 perl, which I have, but didn't install with dselect.  Naughty me.  So, I
 tried to grab the deb perl, and install it, but it needs libdl1.
 Where is libdl1?
I think there is an error in the dependancy.  I think what is 
meant is libdb1.

 Hi folks, sorry to bring up a quasi newbie prob, but here goes.  I had a
 buzz setup with 2.0.24, and after reading various messages about dselect I
 decided to go to the frozen level. Here is my trouble so far, I didn't
 have dpkg-ftp, so I went and got it, only it wouldn't configure.  Needed 
 perl, which I have, but didn't install with dselect.  Naughty me.  So, I 
 tried to grab the deb perl, and install it, but it needs libdl1.

 I've looked, to no avail.  
 The funny thing is, I think dpkg-ftp did install, because ftp is now an 
 option in dselect, only it doesn't seem to work.  It isn't getting the 
 packages files.  It connects, logs in as anonymous, changes to dir, exits, 
 but no new packages are available in the next step.  
 

You have to do:

 Setup - asks user for various pieces of info and only checks to see
if the distributions you asked for are there.
 
 Update - this downloads the package files and uses dpkg to update the
available package lists

 Select - (nothing to do with dpkg-ftp)
 
 Install - should then download any new packages and install them

Which option failed to work and which version are you using?

Andy.
