hi there, there are many ways to list all the packages a system has installed, but unfortunately i cannot find how to get a list the way i want.
i would like to get a listing of all the packages i have installed, with the branch tag beside it. dpkg -l seems to come closest, but lists the packages, the version and a description. i do not want the version or the description.... just the package name with "stable/testing/unstable/experimental" tag beside it. does anyone know how to do that? i cannot even find a way to get the tag displayed, otherwise i'd just write a simple script to remove what i don't want. cheers, Sam -- Free High School Science Texts http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/fhsst Sam's Homepages http://fommil.homeunix.org/~samuel http://www.ma.hw.ac.uk/~samuel
