do a simple install (fire extinguisher to hand). Using dselect or apt-get (and friends) is far from intuitive.. Sorry Mark.
apt-get and the other bits is the most intuitive package installation system available. dselect on the other hand is quite evil so don't use it :)
rpms are a pain though as just the other day i had to start using --nodeps to install things and spent a couple of hours looking for bits online to make stuff work. Although apt-get for redhat is supposed to be very good, maybe I will give it a go soon.
