[PLUG] "Gender" issues

[Chris McNett]

Here are my complaints about debian:

Dselect doesn't seem to work after upgrading to woody, and often gets
confused about the dependencies.  I think the package system may have been
broken once or twice in woody.  They got rid of the distributed-net
package (anyone know why?).

(Some of these may have been fixed.)

Despite these, I still think apt is great.  I use debian for most linux 
stuff.

Also, I'd like them to get the woody installer working (if it isn't
already).  Last I checked, you have to install potato first and then
woody.
