Public bug reported:

Synaptic  0.83 (also was in 0.82.5 I believe)

- Ubuntu Xenial

What should happen:

Synaptic should as previously show a single item for each package when
viewing package list from a particular 'origin'.

What does happen:

For many packages up to 4 identical entries are shown for each package.
See attached screencap.

Duplicate list items are quite literally identical and are true
duplicates as they relate to the identical package in all respects,
including full version. In fact, so much so, that selecting one of a
duplicate for an operation such as install/upgrade/remove etc selects
and then operates on all the duplicate entries as well.

Same problem has been noted on a real machine and in VM running variants
of Xenial - Xubuntu/Kubuntu etc, with or with any ppas present on
system.
