Bug#1109590: apt show: add 'wrap-and-sort -as' like output

[Daniel Baumann]

Package: apt
Severity: wishlist

Hi,
it would be nice if 'apt show' could use a 'wrap-and-sort -as' like 
output, so all the over long depends lines get easier readable/easy 
skimmable by humans.

this is not a wrapping/paging issue, apt already does that, e.g.:

  Package: libreoffice
  [...]
  Depends: libreoffice-base, libreoffice-calc, libreoffice-core [...]

is much easier to read as:

  Package: libreoffice
  [...]
  Depends:
   libreoffice-base,
   libreoffice-calc,
   libreoffice-core,
   [...]

so something like 'apt show -h|--human-readable' implementing this would 
be nice.

Regards,
Daniel
