It would be nice if I could now whether I installed a packages manually
via dpkg -i and m-a a-i, well which uses dpkg, it whether apt-get or
aptitude installed it, i.e. whether I installed the package via a package
manager or a package repository manager.
This way I could purge files that are still no longer available in the
archive but have been before, without removed self compiled kernels,
modules or packages installed from files.
