http://packages.debian.org/unstable/utils/apt-listchanges.html Package: apt-listchanges 2.32 Display new Debian changelog entries from .deb archives apt-listchanges is a tool to show what has been changed in a new version of a Debian package, as compared to the version currently installed on the system. It does this by extracting the relevant entries from the Debian changelog file, usually found in /usr/share/doc/package/changelog.Debian.gz It can be run on several .deb archives at a time to get a list of all of the changes that would be effected by installing or upgrading a group of packages. It can be configured to do this automatically during upgrades using apt. Other packages related to apt-listchanges: [req]= depends [rec]= recommended [sug]= suggested [depends]python (>= 2.2) An interactive high-level object-oriented language (default version) [depends] apt (>= 0.5.3) Advanced front-end for dpkg [depends] python-apt Python interface to libapt-pkg [depends] debconf Debian configuration management system [depends] ucf Update Configuration File: preserves user changes to config files. -- Kevin Mark <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
