Thank you very much.

Half an hours ago I told myself that I should go out to take a rest, but
at that time I still wanna do something, so just read the

http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/debian-faq/ch-software.en.html#s-no-devs

at that page mentioned the dpkg -l, so I started to read the "man dpkg"

Poor me, in some minutes I did feel a strong sense of worry.

I do love this list very much.

With all the best wishes,
