Hi, does anybody know how to check if a package is installed using a script/ shell.
Unfortunately eix -I -q CAT/PACK produces a return code of 0 irrespectively if CAT/PACK is install or not. I'd like to say for P in .......; do if CHECK_IF_INSTALLED $P; then echo $P; fi done What to replace for CHECK_IF_INSTALLED ? Many thanks for a hint, Helmut. -- Helmut Jarausch Lehrstuhl fuer Numerische Mathematik RWTH - Aachen University D 52056 Aachen, Germany
