maintainer. Some of this information is helpful when tracing down various
errors. The `I' key removes this section of the screen all together, providing
more space on the screen for listing packages. Pressing it again consumes
most of the screen in the information section leaving only a few lines for the
selection list. Thus this key cycles the display between these three different
configurations.
At this point the short tour is over and if only the  standard  installation
is desired the return key will exit the selection phase and the install can be
started.
For those with a more adventurous spirit, this discussion will continue with a
description of how to select an additional package for installation. This can
be returned to after the standard distribution is complete, or be dealt with by
using dpkg  by hand .
The plus key  +  is used to select a previously unselected package for installa 
tion. Note that the minus key     is the opposite of the plus key and designates
the package for removal. This is not the same as  don't install  and should
only be used when a package is really supposed to be removed. With packages
for which no action is desired, such as  don't upgrade  the proper key is  H 
which puts the package on Hold (no action to be taken with regard to this
package).
With the highlight bar over the mc package file line in the display, press the
`+' key. The  Dependency Conflict Resolution Help Screen  will pop up as a
consequence of this action. This means that there is a dependency or a conflict
that must be resolved before the chosen package can be installed. In this case
it is a dependence on libgpm1 that must be satisfied. Pressing the space bar
drops the help screen and shows the dependencies necessary for mc. dselect is
typically very smart about doing what is necessary to resolve the dependencies
or conflicts. Only rarely will it set things up contrary to the wishes of the
package administrator. The same keys that work in the main selection screen
