for i in 1 2; do
grep-dctrl "" -s Package,Version -n <Packages.$i \
| paste -s -d " \n" | sort -u >Pkgs.$i
done
By package:
Removed: cat Pkgs.1 Pkgs.2 Pkgs.2 | sort | uniq -c -W 1 | grep " 1"
Added: cat Pkgs.1 Pkgs.2 Pkgs.2 | sort | uniq -c -W 1 | grep " 2"
By package+version:
Removed: cat Pkgs.1 Pkgs.2 Pkgs.2 | sort | uniq -c | grep " 1"
Added: cat Pkgs.1 Pkgs.2 Pkgs.2 | sort | uniq -c | grep " 2"
