Package: dpkg Version: 1.13.25 Severity: normal
In transferring a package list from one machine to another using --get/set-selections, I noticed that the spamassassin package didn't get installed. A quick test on the command line showed this: # dpkg --get-selections | grep spam spamc install # grep spam packages.txt spamassassin install spamc install # dpkg --set-selections < packages.txt # dpkg --get-selections | grep spam spamc install # As you can see both spamc and spamassassin are in the packages.txt file, but only spamc is being set by --set-selections.
