More info from apt-cache show?
Is there any way to get more info from a package other than the
description that is shown by apt-cache show?
What I'd like to see is that something like apt-cache changelog foo
that shows:
foo v 1.2.3-4
This fixes the nasty little bug that some people were experiencing with
the 1.2.3-3 package.
Enjoy.
Even if the comment is nothing more than: "This package incorporates
the latest changes to the software, see http://www.foohomepage.net for
more."
I wouldn't be surprised if this exists already, but I sure can't find
it. Is there a general "wishlist" for debian that I can post this on?
Thanks.
