Hmm...  'dpkg -l' will truncate the name if it is too big for the
field.  Is there a way to get the entire name?  Something similar to
--get-selections but including the version like --list?


'COLUMNS=120 dpkg -l' does not truncate the package names.

for the most part, for instance enlightenment-theme-brushedmetal is still truncated below about COLUMNS=155...
