I primarily use the aptitude curses interface when updating my boxes. I run it, update the package list, then shift-u and 'g' to see what needs to be upgraded. In scrolling down the list as each package is highlighted the info section below shows me "<pkg> being upgraded from version blah to version blah2".
I was thinking it would be really nice if it also showed some package notes for this particular build. This would be of particular interest for security patches. i.e. "This build incorporates bigfixes fixing vulnerability blah. See <insert CVE/DSA link here> for more info". Or, it could even list out the fixes incorporated from the BTS. In a desktop setting I could see having a bug watchlist and then if aptitude could check that, it could bring it to the users attention. This probably isn't a new idea, but a cursory search of the archives didn't find anything. Keith -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
