I don't think your script prints this information. It shows from which source these packages would be installed if you installed them *now*, which is not necessarily the same thing. > $ apt-listrepository > aalib1 http://ftp.leo.org woody/main > acpid http://ftp.leo.org woody/main > acroread ftp://ftp.nerim.net stable/main > acroread-debian-files ftp://ftp.nerim.net stable/main > adduser http://ftp.leo.org woody/main > amule file: woody/all > ... With apt from experimental, the following output is printed. Is this intentional? apt: *** 0.6.18 0 -10 http://proxy.enyo.de experimental/main Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 0.5.21 0 800 http://proxy.enyo.de unstable/main Packages On my system, many packages are reported with a source of /var/lib/dpkg/status; maybe that's because it's no longer possible to install them from unstable.
