Is there a regexp for the:
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad

I mean like:
apt-get install gstreamer*-plugins-bad
so that later, when it will get a new version number, it would still be
downloadable by a "script" written e.g.: now.
Sure, gstreamer.*-plugins-bad$
Just don't forget the quotes to prevent shell expansion, to search for
package names only, and if it's a batch job, whatever is necessary to be
non-interactive.
I would suggest aptitude
# aptitude --assume-yes install '?name(gstreamer.*-plugins-bad$)'
until someone can clear what exactly the different apt-* tools are using:
# apt-get --assume-yes install 'gstreamer.*-plugins-bad$'
[...]
Note, selecting gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad for regex
'gstreamer.*-plugins-bad$'
$ apt-cache --names-only search 'gstreamer.*-plugins-bad$'
gstreamer0.10-plugins-bad - GStreamer plugins from the "bad" set
gstreamer0.10-plugins-really-bad - GStreamer plugins from the "bad" set
apt-get seems fine, but I find the inconsitency weird. I'll try to blame my
regex-fu before apt-cache, although I just can't think of a way it got to
match the *really-bad package. Manpage says it's supposed to be POSIX RE.
$ apt-show-versions -R '^apt(itude)?$'
apt/lenny uptodate 0.7.20.2+lenny1
aptitude/lenny uptodate 0.4.11.11-1~lenny1
