Subject: [parisc-linux] how to use dpkg/dselect/apt-get ???
Date: Sat, 20 Oct 2001 20:51:19 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <01102020511903.00166@nick> (raw)

I'm tearing my hair out, and glad I've never tried debian before...

I got 0.92 installed and running on my B132L, but for the life of
me can't figure out how in the !@#$ to use the package tools
to do anything useful (like install X or see what packages are
in ftp.us.debian.org/debian/dists/unstable/main/binary-hppa/

I have also failed to find any useful docs/tutorials on the matter.

Could someone please post a link to a useful howto or write a
mini-howto up?  So far, these package tools have seemed rather
daunting...

Nick
