Dear Maintainer,

Subject: Re: /usr/bin/apt-show-versions: Multiple upgrades available, 
apt-show-versions shows none
Followup-For: Bug #762909
Package: apt-show-versions
Version: 0.22.7

Dear Maintainer,

First and as always, THANK YOU for your time and dedication that helps make 
Debian possible overall! Secret between you and me, apt-show-versions is 
permanent Top 5 of software packages I LOVE!

Secondly, I wasn't sure whether to actually change the subject line so I didn't 
because my situation is similar. This bug reproduced itself on my system.

"apt-get upgrade" shows 21 packages while "apt-show-versions -u" only shows 18 
in the works of needing attention for my setup right now. These three are the 
ones apt-get shows that apt-show-versions does not:

libnet-dns-perl php-text-languagedetect php-xml-svg

In case something about the following helps distinguish what's causing the 
glitch, both currently acknowledge these 18 as needing upgraded:

chromium cpp cpp-5 firefox-esr g++ g++-5 gcc gcc-5 gcc-5-base libasan2 
libblkid1 libgcc-5-dev libmpx0 libpulse-mainloop-glib0 libpulse0 
libstdc++-5-dev php-horde-mongo tzdata

My apologies that this has been going on for several months. I just hadn't been 
able to cognitively pull together the correspondence to report it. :)

For kicks while writing this up, I just upgraded apt-get's 3 singly then ran 
apt-show-versions after each. Nothing changed in what apt-show-versions 
reported.

That's all I can think of right now. Thank you again *so much*! 
Apt-show-versions has been a PHENOMENAL TOOL with respect to having to minutely 
control upgrades over dialup Internet access.

Best wishes from Talking Rock, Georgia!
