As an aptitude-novice, I tried the above command on my fully-operational upgrade from Sarge to Etch. It gave a long list of installed packages - almost all of which were part of the Debian install. The generated list included one of the two non-Debian packages (opera)- deleted during the install and replaced subsequently. It failed to find the only other non-Debian package (vuescan).
