Besides apt-get there is aptitude - a ncurses based frontend to Apt. Hey, *I may be wrong*, but Synaptic uses library calls to APT and there may not be any provision to log actual apt-get commands. I am an Ubuntu user, but have'nt used Synaptic since years so cant help you more with this. -- Regards, Jasbir _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
