Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: netselect

As described here:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netselect/+bug/275280

the netselect package was removed in intrepid. The justification is
mistaken: while the netselect-apt package that depends upon netselect is
debian-specific and is better off omitted (if not entirely rewritten),
netselect itself is a general tool with nothing debian-specific about
it.

The problems that omitting it were meant to fix can be fixed entirely by
continuing to omit netselect-apt while putting netselect back in.

** Affects: netselect (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided

please restore netselect package: it's _not_ debian-specific
