Or run
dpkg -l "*xfree86*"
and since Romeyn's problem looked much like one I'm having, I did the same and got...
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold | Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed |/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err: uppercase=bad) ||/ Name Version Description +++-==============-==============-============================================ in system-xfree86 4.2-13 (no description available) pn system-xfree86 <none> (no description available) iHR system-xfree86 4.3-3 pn system-xfree86 <none> (no description available) iHR xfree86 4.3.0-2 pn xfree86-base <none> (no description available) pn xfree86-base-s <none> (no description available) un xfree86-base-t <none> (no description available) un xfree86-base-t <none> (no description available) un xfree86-rootle <none> (no description available) un xfree86-rootle <none> (no description available) un xfree86-rootle <none> (no description available) un xfree86-rootle <none> (no description available) pn xfree86-shlibs <none> (no description available) pn xfree86-upgrad <none> (no description available)
and now I'm worried - this looks to be one rather sorry mess. If I run...
fink list -i xfree
I get...
i system-xfree86 2:4.3-2 [placeholder for user installed x11]
i system-xfree... 2:4.3-2 [placeholder for user installed x11 developme...
i system-xfree... 2:4.3-2 [placeholder for user installed x11 shared li...
and FinkCommander doesn't think I have anything installed!
So, can anyone tell me how I clean this mess up?
TIA
