Package: apt
Version: 0.5.28.6
The apt-cache man page says:
` If --no-all-versions is specified, only the
candidate version will displayed
(the one which would be selected for installation)'
Here's what actually happens when this option is set
as default through apt.conf:
$ apt-cache policy xtell
xtell:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 2.10.1-0.1
Version Table:
2.10.3 0

$ apt-cache show xtell

Description: Simple messaging client and server, sort
of networked write
Simple messaging client and server, allowing you to
send messages
from computer running xtell client to computer
running xtelld server.

As you can see, apt is not showing the candidate
version, but the newest one.
It should show the candidate version.
