Oooohhh, shiny new toy that I just found because of you. This came via
"man apt-show-versions":
To upgrade all packages in testing:
apt-get install `apt-show-versions -u -b | grep testing`
Actually having some cognitive abilities functioning today, I further
stepped out on a limb and just ran:
apt-cache show `apt-show-versions -u -b | grep sid`
It gave me some things back! One more test:
apt-cache show `apt-show-versions -u -b | grep jessie`
Returned this error:
E: No packages found
Woohoo!!! (Because it's giving varying answers based on query changes)
Yes, no, I understand that still might not quite be the answer sought
after in this thread, BUT it *is* pulling based on [release versions].
That means at least some of the developer work is already addressed if
this in fact doesn't quite provide the desired results BUT would work
with some flag tweaking.
Cindy :)
