apt-show-versions - Lists available package versions with distribution

apt-show-versions parses the dpkg status file and the APT lists for the
installed and available package versions and distribution and shows
upgrade options within the specific distribution of the selected
package.

This is really useful if you have a mixed stable/testing environment and
want to list all packages which are from testing and can be upgraded in
testing.

apt-show-versions uses caching for the status information of installed
and available packages. If you run apt-show-versions as root the cache
is updated as needed. If you run as non-root uses the newest available
information, but can't update the cache. If you run as root with the
option -i the cache is initialized or updated only.
