I'd like to point out here also, that when I tried to uninstall a package,
but it failed due to a dependency problem, the first "i" changed even though
the package was still installed, because apparently my attempt to remove the
packages changed the first state to a desired of purge. Seems that this isn't
always the right formula. Perhaps this?
dpkg -l '*' | perl -ne 'print if substr($_,1,1) eq "i"'
