Package: apt Version: 0.6.43.2 Severity: wishlist Hi!
Today I was trying to see the available versions of a package. With "apt-cache madison aptitude", for example, I get: aptitude | 0.4.1-1experimental1 | http://ftp.debian.org experimental/main Packages aptitude | 0.4.1-1 | http://ftp.debian.org unstable/main Packages aptitude | 0.4.1-1 | http://ftp.debian.org unstable/main Sources aptitude | 0.4.1-1experimental1 | http://ftp.debian.org experimental/main Sources However, on a machine without source URLs on sources.lists, I get: E: You must put some 'source' URIs in your sources.list The behavior that I was expecting is something like "apt-cache show aptitude | grep Version" Maybe an "apt-cache version package" could be implemented. Using this, we can see the available versions, even with the users that don't have some source URL on their sources.list file. Thank you very much!
