I thought I would be slick and write a package that contains a script that

by listing each of the packages and it's install status in a file, then
piping that file to 'dpkg --set-selections', and then using 'apt-get
dselect-upgrade' to process the new package selections.
I had similar problem with dpkg --set-selections/get-selections before and
was never able to sovle it. Hope you can solve it this time.
One last attempt. If
apt-get dselect-upgrade
failed, how about
dselect install
?
