If you need a simple script logic, you could use bash like this: ==============>8==================>8============== #!/bin/bash
PACKAGES="package1 package2 package3"
for PACKAGE in ${PACKAGES}; do
dpkg -l ${PACKAGE} > /dev/null 2>&1
if [ !$? ]; then
aptitude install ${PACKAGE}
fi
done
==============>8==================>8==============
Now, if you need this at package level, you should listen to Pietro's
advices.
