If you have the grep-dctrl package installed, the command grep-available can do this. HAL9000:~$ grep-available -P -X -s Package,Depends netscape-base-4 Package: netscape-base-4 Depends: ldso (>= 1.9.7-0), libc5 (>= 5.4.0-0), libc6 (>= 2.1.2), xlib6g (>= 3.3.5) The command options are: -P : search on the package name only -X : require an exact match -s Package,Depends : display only the Package and Depends fields and there's a whole bunch more options to fine tune your search. -- Mike Werner KA8YSD | "Where do you want to go today?"
