Hi, it's normal behavior: 'dpkg -l' shows the installed packages. If you want to know which packages are available, you should use apt-cache. I generally use 'apt-cache search '. Then you can have a look at the found packages using 'apt-cache show ', and at last install it using 'apt-get install

Just installed debian 3.1 and i have a strange problem. I've had it once before, but it dissapeared by it self. Or maby i fixed it without knowing what i was doing. A dpkg -l shows only a list of installed packages. But i can use apt-get install package, when i know what the package is called.

Hi list, can anyone explain the difference between dpkg (dpkg-deb, dselect...) and APT (apt-get...) to me? What is considered the better one of both? The APT manpage says, APT is still in development, but why create another debian packager, if there's already one? -- Yves Goergen [EMAIL PROTECTE
