You can check from where these packages are coming with: aptitude search -F "%p %t %v" "~S ~i ~Aunstable" %p : name of package %t : name of archive %v : version Since Sven posted the same search, I have to assume that I haven't used the wrong short options. I don't have the time to check the documentation but you could try the long options just in case: aptitude search -F "%p %t %v" "?narrow(?installed,?archive(unstable)" -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
