I was reading Debian-devel and someone mentioned 'apt-cache madison ...' which I didn't know about. So I thought I was mention it so that folks can be aware of its existance. apt-cache madison ... apt-cache’s madison command attempts to mimic the output format and a subset of the functionality of the Debian archive management tool, madison. It displays available versions of a package in a tabular format. Unlike the original madison, it can only display information for the architecture for which APT has retrieved package lists (APT::Architecture).
