"By default" is a somewhat nebulous term. You'll file packages with a priority of "required" which pretty much /must/ be installed for your system to function. Any package not automatically installed (to satisfy a dependency) has been explicitly installed. The 'deborphan' package can be used to show packages installed which have no packages dependent on them (generally libraries). What's your goal here? And if I may suggest, being slightly paranoid is rarely sufficient. -- Dr. Ed Morbius, Chief Scientist / | Robot Wrangler / Staff Psychologist | When you seek unlimited power Krell Power Systems Unlimited | Go to Krell! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
