Thank you! I didn't know what it meant.

Debian and apt and the way things are done within this OS cultural
ecosystem are fine, except for the assumption of using the Internet as
a trusted medium to any extent ("except", right? ;-)). I just got some
retribution from the Internet AI Gods, it seems. No internet access
for a week ...

Well, let me just say that it somehow makes me feel somewhat
satisfied. As some sort of conservation law I think when they give me
sh!t you are not getting it ...

Debian:12.4/stable [amd64] ...
apt-get installation logs (in --dry-run mode) show lines like: ... Inst libvncclient1 (0.9.14+dfsg-1 Debian:12.4/stable [amd64]) Inst vlc-bin (3.0.20-0+deb12u1 Debian:12.4/stable [amd64]) Inst vlc-plugin-qt (3.0.20-0+deb12u1 Debian:12.4/stable [amd64]) ... you can get most parts of the suffix: "Debian:12.4/stable [amd64]", in various way except the ".4" and the "stable" parts. How could you get, list those ".4" and "stable" attributes prior to running apt-get? lbrtchx
