Re: Where do I get the bsdmainutils package ?
It's in the admin section.
Here's how to find out such things:
/var/lib/dpkg/available is a list of all packages, where they reside,
dependencies, size, etc. This may not be the most elegant way to extract
the desired info, but I just typed 'more /var/lib/dpkg/available', then
hit '/' to start a search and typed 'Package: bsdmainutils'. This took
me right to the bsdmainutils information.
