How can I get list of all the non-free software I have?
Hi!
I want to get full list of all the non-free packages that I have installed on my computer (from the non-free source for apt-get). How can I do that? :Pengy: Cause I want to remove all/some of them. :D RMS wrote: Quote:

Use aptitude, go to the installed packages section and then non-free. Should do the trick
|
I can't find there a section for non-free....
|
hmm.. sorry about that.. said that while I was at work... Thought it was there.. Guess I should look before I leap
|
Ok.. I got this from someone else so I can't take the credit but install "vrms". That should do the trick
edit: Ok.. it is in aptitude... YOu have to go through each menu of the installed packages. For example.. in mine I have non-free packages installed in Installed --> Sound --> non-free |
If you're in aptitude, hit "l" (as in "limit") and type in "~snon-free~i" and hit enter. The only packages you'll see are installed and from non-free (but you'll still have to look in each section). Or if you just want a nice list, run aptitude search \~snon-free\~i at the command line. (note, the \~'s are used because ~foo translates to "/home/foo" in many/most shells).

Thank you! It works!
Now I have only java,flash and fonts from the non-free on my computer. |
