According to the dpkg man page:
dpkg -l | --list package-name-pattern ...
List packages matching given pattern. If no pack�
age-name-pattern is given, list all packages in
/var/lib/dpkg/available.
However, on my Woody systems, it looks like if no name is given
it lists the installed packages rather than the available
packages.
Have I confused myself somehow?
