Comment:

 > There are no doctests for `_package_lists_from_sage_output(...,
 version=True)`, nor does the `OUTPUT` block explain the output in that
 case.

 Fixed.

 > For `version=True`, I would actually propose to change the output format
 to a list of triples `(package_name, installed_version, latest_version)`,
 where `installed_version` is `None` if the package is not installed and
 `latest_version` is the newest available version.

 I do not mind, you can open a ticket if you need this feature.

 > Since this function would be quite different from
 `_package_lists_from_sage_output`, perhaps there should be two functions:
 `_package_lists_from_sage_output` and `_package_versions_from_sage_output`
 or something...

 Two private functions that do almost the same job? Let's keep things
 simple, one is enough.
