An example of this sort of thing is the current wheezy package of
"libcrypt-blowfish-perl"
(https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/libcrypt-blowfish-perl)
As near as I can tell, the 2.12-1+b2 .debs of this package was created after
the 2.12-1 .debs, but from the same source
kages.

If you don't trust the source of the deb, don't install it. Period.
There are many methods of checking what debs might do but many of them really
are you checking source. However instead of source of the program it&#x

Hi all
On my debian/testing machine I have a 3rd party package
gerris-snapshot (the debian gerris package is very old).
And ...

Thank you for the answers.
I want to use something like strings from binutils packages, something like
strings binary_file | grep gcc
, but seem that these strings are removed from binaries.
Best regards

I am not aware of any such program. But if all you wanted to know is the gcc
version used, then you can take a look at the build logs provided at

Hello, list.
Is there a way/program to guess gcc version used for compilation of some
debian package ?

Hi,
How do I download the .debs of packages already installed in my system
without having to reinstall them first via apt?
The command I'm using right now is:
apt-get --yes --reinstall install `cat package_list.txt`
where package_list.txt contains the package name

Hi,
How do I download the .debs of packages already installed in my system
without having to reinstall them first via apt?
The command I'm using right now is:
apt-get --yes --reinstall install `cat package_list.txt`
where package_list.txt contains the package names per line.
TIA

For years I have used rsync to maintain my debian archive mirror. Lately a

First off, please don't cross-post.
An amd64 host can be used to build i386 packages with ease (using
e.g. schroot), whereas amd64 packages cannot easily be built on an
i386 host. Thus, I suggest an amd64 machine with an i386 chroot.

According to apt-cache it is only in unstable here
I'm looking for checkinstall (was using it under sarge) at etch for
amd64, but it seems to be absent. Which program can I use to build debs
from compiled programs?

apt does check the validity of cached debs before installing them. If a
