Hi apt-cache --names-only search '^a' except from packages name started with 'a' (intented) will also give packages that they have a source file whos name starts with 'a'. is that an error?
eg: $apt-cache --names-only search '^a' ... xul-ext-adblock-plus ... $ apt-cache show xul-ext-adblock-pl ackage: xul-ext-adblock-plus Priority: optional Section: web Installed-Size: 1480 Maintainer: Dmitry E.
