Hello, I have used aptitude show $(package_name) to list the details of a given package.
In the output of the vlan package for example one gets output like: [snip] Priority: extra Section: misc [/snip] How might one determine all packages (installed or not) that fall under a particular "Priority" or "Section" ? I was thinking something pseudo like aptitude show $(all packages) | grep (essential or required or important or standard or optional or extra) -M _________________________________________________________________ Videos that have everyone talking!
