Dear , Six months now since I started using Ubuntu . I have two 'trial-boot' machines , trial-boot because both machines have 'that other OS' + feisty + gutsy each on a separate partition. Feisty & Gutsy share a common home-partition . Having problems keeping track of the packages-installed and where I have installed which on what , I decided to give the machine something todo : - make a list of the packages on feisty. - make a list of those on gutsy - merge both lists - sort the merged list in order to see what is installed and what is missing . alas it seems 'sort' is not 100% correct ?? A bug ? i have appended here (shorted) files made by method 2 as explained in package.doc ubuntu.apps contains a portion of the merged file and ubuntu.sort is the result of the sort . As You can see around the apport-area the sort is faulty ? There are more of the same kind . ( not included )
Package: app-install-data feisty Package: app-install-data gutsy Package: apport feisty Package: apport-gtk feisty Package: apport-gtk gutsy Package: apport gutsy Package: appres feisty Package: appres gutsy Package: apt feisty Package: apt gutsy I can't figure out what is wrong here ?
