I dislike dselect intensely, and the docs for dpkg et al don't say anything useful. dpkg -l | grep '^ii' dpkg -l | grep '^.i' is better. The second char is the current state; the first is the intended state. Usually the intended state for installed packages is to stay installed, but they could be held (status 'hi') to lock them at a particular version. -- Marty PGP signature
