root@d44:/var/cache/apt/archives# ll \
*trinity_4%3a14.0.4-0debian8.0.0+0* |wc -l
441
root@d44:/var/cache/apt/archives# ll *.deb |wc -l

root@d44:/var/cache/apt/archives# dpkg -l |grep tde |wc -l
108
root@d44:/var/cache/apt/archives# dpkg -l |grep trinity |wc -l
487
root@d44:/var/cache/apt/archives#
