Hi, i've got a sad situation i don't understand: dpkg -l don't seems to be hiding some packages from my view. this is disturbing since I use dpkg as my information source on what software I can easily install on my systems
dpkg just dosen't see the package: tormentor:/etc/apt# dpkg -l '*coda*' No packages found matching *coda*. tormentor:/etc/apt# dpkg -l coda-server No packages found matching coda-server. apt-cache and apt-get both see it: tormentor:/etc/apt# apt-cache show coda-server Package: coda-server Version: 5.3.17-1 Priority: optional Section: net Maintainer: Jan Harkes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Depends: coda-update, rvm-tools, libc6 (>= 2.2.4-4), liblwp2, libncurses5 (>= 5.2.20010310-1), libreadline4 (>= 4.2-2), librpc23, librvm1, libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2 (>= 1:2.95.4-0.010810) Architecture: i386 Filename: debian/binary-i386/coda-server_5.3.17-1_i386.deb Size: 628300 MD5sum: c29c35616bdaa1c71dbf2315ac7ab4ca Description: Server for the Coda distributed file system Coda is an advanced distributed filesystem.
