Well, I tried installing a .deb file from an older CD, and used apt-cdrom
to update my sources.list to use it. I tried installing the application
with dselect, but it must have decided that I didn't need a lot of my
applications, and when I looked back at my screen, realized all these
packages were gone.

Is there an easy way to get dselect to re-install all those packages (to
the previous state) so I don't have to track them all down and reinstall
them? I'd guess that it was over a hundred package from the look of things.

Thanks,
John
