RE: apt logs
Me too.
Having recently started using Linux, I'd like to see a log of what files
were put where, deleted, or changed. It's sort of frustrating to run
apt-get, have it put 4MB of new stuff on the disk, and not know where any of
it went (or how to even start the thing you installed!). Seems that
something like this should already exist; if not, maybe I'll make it a pet
project.

Is there anyway to keep a log of what exactly has been upgraded and
installed, and when it was upgraded or installed. I am just wondering
this because it might be useful if I ever do an upgrade and it screws
everything up. I am asking now as kind of preventive medicine in case I
do ever screw anything up. I would like to maybe record the exact
command issued and what was installed because of that command. Is there
any program or script already able to do this, or am I going to have to
write it myself. Thankyou for anyhelp.
