  • NOTE TO SELF Re: Documenting a bug -- WHEN was package XYZ installed

    From Richard Owlett@21:1/5 to Richard Owlett on Tue Oct 29 12:00:01 2024
    Why/When did pdfminer get installed? My goal was to have "pdf2txt".

    I am trying to track what I suspect is a documentation bug. There are circular references. To logically break the chain I need to know the
    date package XYZ was installed.

    I thought this would be an "apt" related question. But its manpage gave
    no indication that "when installed" is recorded.

    Is there at least a way to track what required XYZ to be installed?

    TIA

    SeaMonkey has a bug. I had chosen "Reply to sender only".
    Obviously it went to the list. I didn't proof the "To:" ;{
    I'll report the bug.
