It was new to me, even if it was 3 years old...
I was reading Debian-devel and someone mentioned 'apt-cache madison ...'
which I didn't know about. So I thought I was mention it so that folks
can be aware of its existance.
apt-cache madison ...
apt-cache’s madison command attempts to mimic the output format and
a subset of the functionality of the Debian archive management tool,
madison. It displays available versions of a package in a tabular
format. Unlike the original madison, it can only display information for
the architecture for which APT has retrieved package lists
(APT::Architecture).
Cheers,
Kev
