Package: apt-show-versions
Version: 0.20
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

apt-show-versions always has been a great tool to check for old packages that
were still installed but no longer in the repos. However, since the
introduction of mulitarch, it does not recognize installed multiarch packages
correctly.
Example:

richard@huron:~$ apt-show-versions | grep ia32
ia32-libs-gtk/wheezy uptodate 1:0.1
ia32-libs-gtk-i386 1:0.1 installed: No available version in archive
ia32-libs-i386 1:0.4 installed: No available version in archive
nvidia-libopencl1-ia32/wheezy uptodate 304.48-1
richard@huron:~$ apt-cache policy ia32-libs-gtk
ia32-libs-gtk:
  Installiert:           1:0.1
  Installationskandidat: 1:0.1
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 1:0.1 0
        900 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages
        101 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ sid/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
richard@huron:~$ apt-cache policy ia32-libs-gtk-i386
ia32-libs-gtk-i386:i386:
  Installiert:           1:0.1
  Installationskandidat: 1:0.1
  Versionstabelle:
 *** 1:0.1 0
        900 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ wheezy/main i386 Packages
        101 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ sid/main i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
richard@huron:~$

This should be fixed IMHO...

Richard
