aha, ok. The above resulted into successes and a bit more. 1. I got a list which has something around 1000 odd packages and libraries 2. Then I downloaded process.pl from the same place as shared by pabs - wget https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/publicity/dpn.git/plain/scripts/process.pl 3. Changed the mode to have executable bit $ chmod +x process.pl Then ran it - $ ./process.pl 4. It started churning out entries like these on stdout - <li><a href="https://packages.debian.org/unstable/main/libupnp-1.8-10">libupnp-1.8-10 — Portable SDK for UPnP Devices, version 1.8 (shared library)</a></li> Now I have two queries - 1. How can I get the output I am getting on CLI I can have on a file - would something like/similar to [$] ./process.pl > list.json work or something better ? 2. Is there a way to remove libraries from the list itself ? It would make the list smaller and something on which manual processing could be easily done if the description is also there. FWIW am sharing the list that is generated. -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal शिरीष अग्रवाल My quotes in this email licensed under CC 3.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ http://flossexperiences.wordpress.com EB80 462B 08E1 A0DE A73A 2C2F 9F3D C7A4 E1C4 D2D8
