Package: apt
Version: 1.0.9.7
Severity: important
File: /usr/bin/apt-cache
I just have discovered that our scripts broke on jessie because of now
--installed apparently is not supported, although still referred to in the
manpage and changelog doesn't point to any deprecation. So I just assume that
it is a bug: this functionality works on wheezy but not on jessie
$> apt-cache search --installed xserver
E: Command line option --installed is not understood
$> man apt-cache | grep -A3 -e --installed
--installed
Limit the output of depends and rdepends to packages which are
currently installed. Configuration Item: APT::Cache::Installed.
$> schroot -c wheezy-i386 -- apt-cache search --installed xserver | head
glx-diversions - prepare for using accelerated GLX implementations from GPU
vendors
xserver-xorg-video-ivtv - X.Org X server -- IVTV display driver
xserver-xorg-video-ivtv-dbg - X.Org X server -- IVTV display driver (debug
symbols)
...
If fix is trivial (or not ;) ) it would be great if it was fixed for
jessie to come
