Package: apt-listdifferences
Version: 1.20131017
Severity: normal

I am tracking jessie but will install packages from sid if they have been
removed from testing. It appears that if I install a package from sid that is
not available in testing, apt-listdifferences does not gracefully handle the
resulting error. I suspect the same would be true if tracking stable but
installing a package with no version available in wheezy.

For example:

sudo apt-get install netgen-doc/sid
....
apt-listdifferences: fetching source packages
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/apt-listdifferences", line 97, in <module>
    newversion = candidate.source_version
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'source_version'
