  i'm sure there's a simple answer to this but, for my installed
package sun-java6-jdk, what command can i use to see that it came
via the 10.04 /etc/apt/sources.list line:

  deb http://archive.canonical.com/ lucid partner

i did "apt-cache show sun-java6-jdk" but that doesn't tell me where
the package came from.  thanks.
