Package: apt-show-versions Version: 0.22.7 Severity: wishlist When a package is manually upgradeable, the user isn't informed in general. There should be some config file to show such information automatically, perhaps after the cache is updated (I'm not sure how the output would fit in aptitude).
Note: This is important because the user could easily miss security updates of experimental packages. For the specific case of Iceweasel releases (which are provided in experimental), I've posted a message there: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-mozilla-maintainers/2015-December/026994.html -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.3.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages apt-show-versions depends on: ii apt 1.1.5 ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.29+b5 ii libperl5.22 [libstorable-perl] 5.22.1-2 ii perl 5.22.1-2 apt-show-versions recommends no packages. apt-show-versions suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
