What is the recommended way of determining if something isn't seeded in
any Ubuntu flavors? I admit I've done little with seeds, so I went to
SeedManagement then http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/seeds/
and poked around, but there is a lot to check there. Should I be running
germinate locally? Pointing me to an appropriate man page or wiki entry
is enough.

Thanks!
