Okay, How can I do that for each upgradeable package ?


If I run :
apt-get changelog bluetooth

I get all of this : https://termbin.com/xdp5
While the responsible GUI software of the updates shows *only the latest
changes* that come with the upgrade package :

How can I choose from "changelog" to see *only the latest* changes?

What I want to do in the end, is what the GUI system update software
does, but through my terminal :

(The Signal messaging software I don't know why - unfortunately -
doesn't show it's change logs but I'll investigate that later.)
