aha, ok. The above resulted into successes and a bit more.
1. I got a list which has something around 1000 odd packages and libraries
2. Then I downloaded process.pl from the same place as shared by pabs -
wget https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/publicity/dpn.git/plain/scripts/process.pl
3. Changed the mode to have executable bit
$ chmod +x process.pl
Then ran it -
$ ./process.pl
4. It started churning out entries like these on stdout -
<li><a href="https://packages.debian.org/unstable/main/libupnp-1.8-10";>libupnp-1.8-10
— Portable SDK for UPnP Devices, version 1.8 (shared library)</a></li>
Now I have two queries -
1. How can I get the output I am getting on CLI I can have on a file -
would something like/similar to
[$] ./process.pl > list.json
work or something better ?
2. Is there a way to remove libraries from the list itself ? It would
make the list smaller and something on which manual processing could
be easily done if the description is also there.
FWIW am sharing the list that is generated.
