upgrade question



    Hi guys. I'm confused by the two databases for dpkg and apt-get. Currently
apt-get has an up to date potato reference, so if I try to upgrade it will
upgrade netscape-base-4, since I'm running 4.75 and 4.76 is available.
However, if I check what's available with dpkg with dpkg --print-avail, it
lists only the installed version. 
    Is there a way to sync up the two databases so queries from either have
the same information?

    Mike
