I'm running a Sarge system with a few deliberately installed packages
from Etch.
In case I need to remove the Etch packages, I want to be able to know
which packages are from Etch, and I was hoping that aptitude's "search"
facility would help me.
However, this does not work:
aptitude search '~i~Astable'
because it returns all installed packages. Sarge was "stable" when I
installed it, and Etch is "stable" now. For right now, I'm maintaining a
list of packages that I install from Etch, but what if I failed to
maintain or lost that file?
Would there by any way to distinguish the Etch packages from the Sarge
packages?
