Hello list, I wondered what is the difference between
a) dpkg --get-selections "*" > mylist.txt and b) dpkg --get-selections > mylist.txt I get different results, but the asterix is a joker, and the results should be the same. The manual did not mention the asterix, and I suppose (as many sites told using the asterix), option a) is orphaned. Am I correct?
