A Waste of Time?

Alexander Schmehl posted a small, somewhat complex and inefficient shell snippet..

He must have been very bored - it finds any occurence of a given two letter combination, that has only one result when running 'apt-cache search <xy>' on it.. Give me strength!

(The easiest way to work something like this out, is to take the given snippet, and reflow it into a multi-line indented format that you can read)
