Package: synaptic Version: 0.57.11.1+b1 Severity: wishlist Synaptics is an excellent tool, however I wonder if the functionality could be extended in some capacity that would allow one to see the changes between the installed version and the to-be-installed version, of any particular package.
I think a lot of people would find this quite useful and can imagine that there are many others like me who are going directly to the Debian website to look up the exact changes to packages -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.18 (PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages synaptic depends on: ii apt [libapt-pkg-libc6.3-6- 0.6.46.4-0.1 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii apt-utils [libapt-inst-lib 0.6.46.4-0.1 APT utility programs ii libatk1.0-0 1.12.4-3 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcairo2 1.2.4-4 The Cairo 2D vector graphics libra ii libfontconfig1 2.4.2-1.2 generic font configuration library ii libgcc1 1:4.1.1-21 GCC support library ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.0-4 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.12.4-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgtk2.0-0 2.8.20-7 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libncurses5 5.5-5 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libpango1.0-0 1.14.8-5 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libstdc++6 4.1.1-21 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libvte4 1:0.12.2-5 Terminal emulator widget for GTK+ ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxcursor1 1.1.7-4 X cursor management library ii libxext6 1:1.0.1-2 X11 miscellaneous extension librar ii libxfixes3 1:4.0.1-5 X11 miscellaneous 'fixes' extensio ii libxft2 2.1.8.2-8 FreeType-based font drawing librar ii libxi6 1:1.0.1-4 X11 Input extension library ii libxinerama1 1:1.0.1-4.1 X11 Xinerama extension library ii libxml2 2.6.27.dfsg-1 GNOME XML library ii libxrandr2 2:1.1.0.2-5 X11 RandR extension library ii libxrender1 1:0.9.1-3 X Rendering Extension client libra ii scrollkeeper 0.3.14-13 A free electronic cataloging syste Versions of packages synaptic recommends: ii deborphan 1.7.23 Find orphaned libraries ii gksu 2.0.0-4 graphical frontend to su ii libgnome2-perl 1.040-1 Perl interface to the GNOME librar -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
