I know that I can get a list of installed packages without their version numbers with eix:
# eix -nI --format '<category>/<name>' | \
grep -vr '^$\|^\[[0-9]*\]\|^Found\ [0-9]*'
This is probably possible with esearch too. But does anybody know of a way to
get it with portage, bash or gentoolkit?
I was of course considering something like this:
# cd /var/db/pkg && ls * | ${some_magic_regular_expression_to_remove_version}
But I have found it impossible to make a regular expression that does break
for at least one of those:
media-fonts/font-adobe-100dpi-1.0.0
media-fonts/font-adobe-75dpi-1.0.0
media-fonts/font-adobe-utopia-type1-1.0.1
media-libs/jpeg-6b-r7
net-misc/cisco-vpnclient-3des-4.8.00.0490
sys-apps/portage-2.1.1_pre1-r2
sys-fs/udev-090
sys-fs/udev-090-r1
sys-libs/libstdc++-v3-3.3.6
sys-libs/timezone-data-2006g
Which are:
media-fonts/font-adobe-100dpi
media-fonts/font-adobe-75dpi
media-fonts/font-adobe-utopia-type1
media-libs/jpeg
net-misc/cisco-vpnclient-3des
sys-apps/portage
sys-fs/udev
sys-fs/udev
sys-libs/libstdc++-v3
sys-libs/timezone-data
Any ideas?
