Debian/Ubuntu dselect question

[Collins Richey]

I must be missing something. Why can't you just run the following?

apt-get [-y | --yes | --assume-yes] install <the-package-name>

apt-get will download the package (and any dependencies) and install
without asking you any questions, unless there is something screwy
about the package or unless the package has configuration options that
must be handled manually.
