Example :
$ dpkg -l kubuntu-*
Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Installed/Config-files/Unpacked/Failed-config/Half-installed
|/ Err?=(none)/Hold/Reinst-required/X=both-problems (Status,Err:
uppercase=bad)
||/ Name Version Description
+++-==============-==============-============================================
ii kubuntu-artwor 6.06-21 kubuntu artwork for usplash
ii kubuntu-defaul 6.06-21 Default settings and artwork for the Kubuntu
pn kubuntu-deskto <none> (no description available)
ii kubuntu-docs 6.06-11 kubuntu documentation
ii kubuntu-grub-s 2.1 grub splashimages for Kubuntu
ii kubuntu-konque 0.3-0ubuntu1 Konqueror shortcuts for the Ubuntu wiki and
pn kubuntu-live <none> (no description available)
So, as written:
First column: Desired
u for Unknown
i for Install
r for Remove
p for Purge
h for Hold
Second column: Status
n for Not Installed
i for Installed
c for Config-files
u for Unpacked
f for Failed-config
h for Half-installed
Third column: Err? (error?) — If in uppercase, bad errors.
for (none)
h for Hold
r for Reinst-required
x for both-problems
Hope it helps !
Free greetings,
Didier
