Don't think you can get a real list. You can do however
cd /var/lib/dpkg/
ls -altr *.list|less
You'll see the packages list, sorted by the time of last installation
of each package. However, if you've installed package X on feb 1,
and updated it again on feb 2, it will come up as feb 2 only.
The other option is looking at /var/lib/dpkg/status and status-old,
but that doesn't go back that far.
