I am responsible for a system, which someone else had setup. Sadly we just started documentation after I took the honor. We had an issue with old bionic packages since we dist-upgraded to 20.04 and solved it, but we are still messing with a few ppa's which I in first place need to figure out what they provide and in second place who installed them.

Is it possible to figure this out?
