+==== when was a package installed ====
+To find out when I installed the dokuwiki package, I did
+<code>
+$ zgrep installed /var/log/dpkg.log* | grep dokuwiki | grep -v "half-installed"
+/var/log/dpkg.log.2.gz:2022-12-06 17:15:37 status installed dokuwiki:all 0.0.20220731.a-1
+</code>
+without the ''grep -v "half-installed"'' at the end, I was getting
+<code>
+raju@minion:~$ zgrep installed /var/log/dpkg.log* | grep dokuwiki
+/var/log/dpkg.log.2.gz:2022-12-06 17:15:33 status half-installed dokuwiki:all 0.0.20180422.a-2.1
+/var/log/dpkg.log.2.gz:2022-12-06 17:15:37 status installed dokuwiki:all 0.0.20220731.a-1
+</code>
