KDE and Compiz

Replying to my own post here...

That list is the total list of compiz packages, may bad.  The ones I 
have installed from that list are:

compiz
compizconfig-backend-gconf
compizconfig-backend-kconfig
compizconfig-settings-manager
compiz-core
compiz-fusion-plugins-extra
compiz-fusion-plugins-main
compiz-gnome
compiz-kde

I also have desktop-effects-kde, emerald, and fusion-icon installed.

Sorry for the confusion.  I dumped apt-cache pkgnames compiz and then 
later realized it showed all packages, not just what I have installed.  
Is there an easy way using apt or aptitude to get a list of installed 
packages that match a filter?
