List installed software from non-free repo

[Revenger]

This should be on one line:

Code: Select all

dpkg-query -W --showformat='${Package}\t${Section}\n' |grep -e non-free -e contrib

Nice one, thanks

First I've heard of vrms. Great tip. Someone should fork it so an ascii RMS will show up in the terminal admonishing you in varying degrees based on how much non-free/contrib is on your system.

Haha I wrote to the maintainer some years ago, asking for this exact feature
(I registered on the board just to let you know ^^)
