Hi,
Is it possible to avoid virtual package "expansion" with aptitude ? I mean:
$ aptitude show aptitude | egrep ^Recommends
Recommends: aptitude-doc-en | aptitude-doc, libparse-debianchangelog-perl
$ aptitude search ~RBrecommends:aptitude
v aptitude-doc -
p aptitude-doc-cs - Czech manual for aptitude, a terminal-base
p aptitude-doc-en - English manual for aptitude, a terminal-ba
p aptitude-doc-fi - Finnish manual for aptitude, a terminal-ba
p aptitude-doc-fr - French manual for aptitude, a terminal-bas
p aptitude-doc-ja - Japanese manual for aptitude, a terminal-b
p libcwidget3-dbg - high-level terminal interface library for
p libparse-debianchangelog-perl - parse Debian changelogs and output them in
Actually, every package providing "aptitude-doc" is shown in the output of the second command.
Is there a way to avoid this?
