apt-cache show (only newest package)



This laptop was installed as a Woody, then it went through testing and 
now unstable.  I've got sources for all in sources.list.

So, when I do   

	$ apt-cache show foo 

I see more than one foo package.  Can I use apt-cache to just show the 
most current package -- or really, the package that would get installed 
with apt-get install foo?


I hope this flu didn't make me miss something really obvious in the man 
page for apt-cache.

Thanks,
