no this application gives the packages depending of. and not the way around it gives the same info as the one in apt-cache show but, but graphically eg.: apt-cache show apt-proxy ... Depends: debconf (>= 0.5.00), python (<< 2.5), python (>= 2.4), python-twisted (>= 1.3.0-7) | python2.3 (<< 2.3.5-1), python-twisted (>= 1.0.0), python-apt (>= 0.5.8), python-bsddb3, bzip2, logrotate, adduser, netbase ... this information are the one gived by your application. What I'm looking for is: <a_command> <a option> python which will tell me that python is required for apt-proxy,.. or even better telling me that python is required for this and that packages which are installed on my debian Regards -- Cedric BRINER Geneva - Switzerland -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
