True, the fine print on dpkg(1) mentions dpkg-query(1). $ dpkg-query --admindir=var/lib/dpkg -l dbus-1|tail -1 pi dbus-1 0.23.4-8 [<-Finally.

The dpkg man page doesn't warn about it too. By the way, on the man page -O | --selected-only Only process the packages that are selected for installa- tion. The actual marking is done with dselect or by dpkg, when it handles packages. For example, when a package is removed, it will be marked selected for deinstallation. Maybe this means: removed, it will be marked selected for deinstallation without this option. But it's not clear.
