One way to see when you last installed or upgraded a package, is to look at the modification time of the /usr/doc/<package-name> directory, since at least one new file (the new changelog) is installed into this directory at every upgrade. Not a very nice way, but it works for the majority of the packages. Remco -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
