It should be fairly trivial for a single distribution and architecture, given an appropriate deb-src line in sources.list (extending beyond a single distribution would require some further work on the apt-cache invocation), viz: #!/bin/sh BINPKGS="($(apt-cache showsrc $1 | egrep "^Binary:" | cut -d" " -f2- | \ sed -e 's/, /|/g'))" grep-dctrl -sPackage -e -FBuild-Depends "$BINPKGS" \ /var/lib/apt/lists/*_Sources | sort -g | uniq and pass it a source package name. Extending it to cope with binary package names isn't particularly difficult. Regards, Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
