Not that I know of. I managed to produce that list by comparing the list
of installed packages (in /var/lib/dpkg/status or output of dpkg -l '*')
with all the *Packages files found under /var/lib/apt/lists, that
contain all the packages in the distributions mentioned in the
sources.list file. I can send you my script if you want it, it takes a
*long* time to run on my AMD 300 MHz machine but produces very
satisfactory results.
