Description: Display change history from .deb archives
apt-listchanges is a tool to show what has been changed in a new
version of a Debian package, as compared to the version currently
installed on the system. It does this by extracting the relevant
entries from the Debian changelog file, and the NEWS.Debian file.
.
It can be run on several .deb archives at a time to get a list of all
of the changes that would be effected by installing or upgrading a
group of packages. It can be configured to do this automatically
during upgrades using apt.
