OK, I've studied the docs and the man pages, and I swear this is still a big
mystery. Please o gurus, what do these lines mean:
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)
And what is their relationship to
||/ Name Version Description
+++-==================-==================-====
ii tuxkart 0.2.0-3 A 3D go-kart racing game.
The whole deal:
carla at windbag:~$ dpkg -l tuxkart
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 tuxkart 0.2.0-3 A 3D go-kart racing game.
Thanks!
