Greetings:
Another RH to Debian convert question...
I'm used to rpm but clueless about apt, etc. I've mostly gotten the
hang of dselect I think.
Can someone tell me the equivilant these commands, and/or what to run
to get the desired result:
rpm -qa = show all packages installed?
rpm -q --whatprovides xxxx = tell me what package provided program
xxxxx
Thanks very much for the education as I convert to debian!
Scott
