The same information is already provided by `dpkg -l` above ;)


When looking for Debian packages the version number provided by
`dpkg -l` or `apt list`, etc. should be used as it often doesn't match 
the software's internal version.


$ neomutt -v | head -1
NeoMutt 20180716

$ apt list --installed neomutt
Listing... Done
neomutt/oldstable,now 20180716+dfsg.1-1+deb10u2 arm64 [installed]
N: There is 1 additional version. Please use the '-a' switch to see it


Kind regards,
Andrei
