Bug#217421: apt: Differentiate between REMOVED and REPLACED



Package: apt
Version: 0.5.4
Severity: wishlist

When doing an upgrade, especially a dist-upgrade, it would be nice to see which packages are really removed (i.e. the functionality is removed) and which packages are replaced by others (i.e. the functionality remains but the packaging changes). This can be done by using the "Replaces:" information in the packages.
