Dear ,
Six months now since I started using Ubuntu . I have two 'trial-boot'
machines , trial-boot because both machines have 'that other OS' + feisty +
gutsy each on a separate partition. Feisty & Gutsy share a common
home-partition .
Having problems keeping track of the packages-installed and where I have
installed which on what , I decided to give the machine something todo :
- make a list of the packages on feisty.
- make a list of those on gutsy
- merge both lists
- sort the merged list in order to see what is installed and what is
missing .
alas it seems 'sort' is not 100% correct ?? A bug ?
i have appended here (shorted) files made by method 2 as explained in
package.doc
ubuntu.apps contains a portion of the merged file and ubuntu.sort is the
result of the sort .
As You can see around the apport-area the sort is faulty ? There are
more of the same kind . ( not included )
Package: app-install-data feisty
Package: app-install-data gutsy
Package: apport feisty
Package: apport-gtk feisty
Package: apport-gtk gutsy
Package: apport gutsy
Package: appres feisty
Package: appres gutsy
Package: apt feisty
Package: apt gutsy
I can't figure out what is wrong here ?
Saluukes.
