Bug#778234: Support "apt policy <pkgname>" as a frontend to apt-cache policy

[Naja Melan <najamelan@autistici.org>]

Package: apt
Version: 1.0.9.6
Severity: wishlist


I think the apt command is a great move forward in interface from
apt-get, apt-cache etc. It's shorter to type and it's syntax is better.

One of the commands that I miss often (useful for people who pull from
several repositories) is "apt policy <pkgname>".

I suppose since this is a matter of creating a frontend to apt-cache, it
should be trivial to implement.

thanks in advance
