As there have been interface modifications, I would have been very pleased
if #525813 was fixed (ie a way to show package version and/or suite)

Even if using "apt update", I do not wish to update the Contents each
time I do an "apt update". I just discovered with this thread that
"apt-get update" will do it. It is a significant download time by
default that wont be useful to lots of people.
I just installed apt-file from experimental:
$ sudo apt-file update
