How can I list all the packages installed on my system that are currently part of the stable distribution but not present in either testing or sid?
For example, ibkasten2okteta1controllers1abi1 libkasten2okteta1gui1 are currently part of stable, but not present in either testing or sid. The command should list these packages if they are currently installed. If it matters, here are the repos I am tracking. % inxi -r Repos: Active apt sources in file: /etc/apt/sources.list deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ stretch main contrib non-free deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ stretch main contrib non-free deb http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ stretch-updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://httpredir.debian.org/debian/ stretch-updates main contrib non-free deb http://security.debian.org/ stretch/updates main contrib non-free deb-src http://security.debian.org/ stretch/updates main contrib non-free I prefer to use apt-get to aptitude. But if this can only be done in aptitude, I do not mind using that. thanks raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi | http://raju.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Blog
