Package: apt-show-versions
Version: 0.09
Severity: normal

Hi,

In /etc/apt/apt.conf one can prefer a release with the 'Default-Release' 
directive. Currently apt-show-versions ignores this setting, so its behaviour 
is different from normal apt behavior: When `apt-show-versions -u` is run, it 
shows a lot less packages than `apt-get upgrade` proposes to update.

This could be fixed by automatically putting the 'Default-Release', from the 
config file, as first item in the @official_releases array. I did this manually 
and now the behavior is correct.

Greetings,
Tias
