the bug submitter's message isn't entirely clear about what he wants to be able to do. another option is apt-show-versions. for example, if you are running etch: $ sudo apt-get install apt-show-versions $ apt-show-versions | grep -v etch would show all packages currently installed that did not come from the etch repository. if this does not sufficiently address the original request, please reopen.
