This laptop was installed as a Woody, then it went through testing and

So, when I do   

	$ apt-cache show foo 

I see more than one foo package.  Can I use apt-cache to just show the 
most current package -- or really, the package that would get installed 
with apt-get install foo?

 

I think

$  apt-cache policy foo

might be what you're looking for...
