My bad. One thing you can do is to use the -d option to aptitude (or equivalent) to only download your updates without installing them right away. If you then look in /var/cache/apt/archives, you'll find the deb files, which are really just ar archives, which contain (among other things) a tarball called data.tar.gz, which in turn contains changelog.gz, which finally contains the actual changelog. Probably a bit of a roundabout way of doing things, but it works. Having a GUI like Ark might help too. -- Alex Nordstrom http://lx.n3.net/ Please do not CC me in followups; I am subscribed to debian-user.
