dpkg activity logging is on Ian J's wish list, but the poor fellow has quite some things on his plate, so don't expect it before Debian 1.2 (ie roundabout August). A very, very crude approximation can be had via miles:~ [root] # dselect | tee logfile but a lot of tr(1) or sed(1) filtering might be needed before that logfile becomes useful. -- Dirk Eddelb"uttel http://qed.econ.queensu.ca/~edd
