I didn't research the "debian meta" at all. I tend to use either http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages#search_packages or the "apt-file search ..." command to determine package names. I'm using Debian "stable" which currently is the "sarge" release. I've upgraded the kernel but not compiled a custom kernel: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ uname -a Linux debzfp 2.6.8-2-686 #1 Mon Jan 24 03:58:38 EST 2005 i686 GNU/Linux [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ My Debian package list follows: Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-==============-==============-============================================ ii adduser 3.63 Add and remove users and groups ii apt 0.5.28.6 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii apt-file 2.0.3-7 APT package searching utility -- command-lin ii apt-utils 0.5.28.6 APT utility programs ii aptitude 0.2.15.9-2 terminal-based apt frontend ii at 3.1.8-11 Delayed job execution and batch processing ii autoconf 2.59a-3 automatic configure script builder ii automake1.9 1.9.5-1 A tool for generating GNU Standards-complian ii autotools-dev 20050422.1 Update infrastructure for config.{guess,sub} ii base-config 2.53.10 Debian base system configurator ii base-files 3.1.2 Debian base system miscellaneous files ii base-passwd 3.5.9 Debian base system master password and group ii bash 2.05b-26 The GNU Bourne Again SHell ii binutils 2.15-5 The GNU assembler, linker and binary utiliti ii bsdmainutils 6.0.17 collection of more utilities from FreeBSD ii bsdutils 2.12p-4 Basic utilities from 4.4BSD-Lite ii bzip2 1.0.2-6 high-quality block-sorting file compressor -
