what does this mean:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] dpkg --yet-to-unpack
 glide-v5             (no description available)
 lesstif-bin          (no description available)
 abiword              (no description available)
 libparted1           (no description available)
 gimp                 (no description available)
 libgnome-dev         (no description available)
 libplot              (no description available)
 tdfx-dri             (no description available)

how can i unpack these yet-to-unpack packages?

dpkg -l "*gimp*" reports (among other things):

        in  gimp           1.0.4-3        (no description available)

does this mean gimp is installed or not installed on my system?

thanks!
pete
