'apt-cache policy bleh' will show you where they would come from *now*, though. > So I can tell what "questionable" packages I have on the system... 'questionable' == 'from sid'? The simple trick would be to look at those which depend on libc6 >= 2.3.1. But why? Sid's not that much more unstable than sarge in general, and the majority of sid packages are probably far less buggy than their sarge versions at the moment, since sarge hasn't seen bug fixes in *months*. -- Rob Weir <rweir@ertius.org> http://ertius.org/
