如何在使用apt-get安装软件包之前检查版本

Question

我正在考虑安装上个月在我的Debian PC 上发布的hylafax + 5.5.4版本.

我查了一下dpkg -l | grep "hylafax",发现当前的版本是5.5.3.然后我检查apt-cache search hylafax并看到包可用,但我看不到任何版本号.

如何找到可用的软件包版本apt-get？

Answer 1

好的,我找到了.

apt policy <package name> 将显示版本详细信息.

它还显示当前安装的版本以及可安装的版本.

例如, apt-cache policy hylafax+

Answer 2

apt-cache policy <package-name>

$ apt-cache policy redis-server
redis-server:
  Installed: (none)
  Candidate: 2:2.8.4-2
  Version table:
     2:2.8.4-2 0
        500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty/universe amd64 Packages

apt-get install -s <package-name>

$ apt-get install -s redis-server
NOTE: This is only a simulation!
      apt-get needs root privileges for real execution.
      Keep also in mind that locking is deactivated,
      so don't depend on the relevance to the real current situation!

Description-en: Persistent key-value database with network interface
 Redis is a key-value database in a similar vein to memcache but the dataset
 is non-volatile. Redis additionally provides native support for atomically
 manipulating and querying data structures such as lists and sets.
 .
 The dataset is stored entirely in memory and periodically flushed to disk.

Answer 7

在 Debian 上：

apt list --upgradable

给出包含包、要升级的版本以及包的实际版本的列表。

结果 ：

base-files/stable 8+deb8u8 amd64 [upgradable from: 8+deb8u7]
bind9-host/stable 1:9.9.5.dfsg-9+deb8u11 amd64 [upgradable from: 1:9.9.5.dfsg-9+deb8u9]
ca-certificates/stable 20141019+deb8u3 all [upgradable from: 20141019+deb8u2]
certbot/jessie-backports 0.10.2-1~bpo8+1 all [upgradable from: 0.8.1-2~bpo8+1]
