"apt-mark showmanual" will show you all packages that you have manually installed
"apt-mark showauto" will show you all packages that are automatically installed
"apt-mark showinstall" will show you all the packages that are installed
How is this useful? It tells you what packages are installed in your system.
So you can go "apt-mark showinstall | grep somelibrary" to see if you have a particular library installed that's a dependency.
