packages installation history

[AS]

You all know that synaptic log each install/update/remove operations, at least for the amount of time you set up in your synaptic preferences.

I found myself sometimes using apt-get update / apt-get dist-upgrade ... guess what ... that's not logged in synaptic log files ... of course.

How to list the latest installed packages ?  The following command will provide the list of the latest installed/upgraded packages ... the last 100 packages to be precise:

Code: [Select]

rpm  -qa  --last  |  head  -100
Still the removed one are missed, but it is better than nothing!

Thanks for the tip .......  but  "apt-get upgrade " ......  should that be "apt-get dist-upgrade"?
