Hi, Running aptitude searches from the command line is returning some strange virtual packages. Here's an example search for kernel-source packages.
[debian ~]$ aptitude search ~v~nkernel-source v kernel-source - v kernel-source-2.2 - v kernel-source-2.2.19 - v kernel-source-2.2.20 - v kernel-source-2.4 - v kernel-source-2.4-17 - v kernel-source-2.4.10 - v kernel-source-2.4.17 - v kernel-source-2.4.18 - v kernel-source-2.4.23 - v kernel-source-2.6.1 - v kernel-source-2.6.2.040206 - v kernel-source-2.6.4.040324 - Note that "aptitude search kernel-source" will return the same virtual packages plus other non-virtual packages. Most interesting are the last two packages (kernel-source-2.6.2.040206 and kernel-source-2.6.4.040324) which I don't think have ever existed anywhere. I built and installed kernel-image debs with these version numbers from non-Debian sources, but I didn't create kernel-source packages. >From the aptitude curses interface I only see: v kernel-source <none> <none> v kernel-source-2.2 <none> <none> v kernel-source-2.4 <none> <none> Anyone know where these mystery virtual packages are coming from? -- Andrew -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
