how to check if a packet is installed
Hi, well before I install other packages, i have a basic question:
is there a way to check what packages I have installed currently? thanks I'm really newbie |
Yes, and pretty simple too!
Code:
dpkg --get-selections > selections.txt Code:
chmod 755 selections.txt |
Desktop>Administration>Synaptic Package Manager
click on INSTALLED |
3rd way
insted of SU -
use Code:
sudo dpkg --get-selections > selections.txt |
you can also use apt to query for one specific package..
apt-cache policy <packagename> Code:
debian:~$ apt-cache policy firefox |
i would do sudo dpkg --get-selections|grep -i "package name"
