Are you sure? It seems to me that this will find all installed packages whose version string contains "2.5" and which depend on any version of libc6 (or, to be more precise, on any package whose name contains the string "libc6"). A simple test case: $ aptitude search '~i~Dlibc6~V226-1' i A xterm - X terminal emulator Xterm on Sid is indeed at version 226-1 at the moment. -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian |
