May I ask what is problem with displaying version information in update manager?
Does anyone believe that is "confusing some users"?
Does anyone know about some user that feels confusing that software packages
has version numbers?
What about newbie user, which *want* to know the version of packag
yeah i disagree as i stated above with the synaptic way... synaptic is just too
slow to use as first of all requires the password each time and having to input
it just to check what's new is extremely annoying (i don't always install new

Michael--could you please make a Update-Manager with the gconf key
turned on for Ibex? All of us in the testing group would really like the
availability again. I'm very sure if you ran a pool in the testing
forum, you would get almost 100% for the idea( in fact, I'll post a poll

I totally agree to have the package versions displayed in the main list.
I was really disappointed by the choice to remove them.

Please simply get version numbers back. Version numbers are *essential*
to upgrade manager. Without version numbers it would be like media player
app which does not show what is playing!

Agreed completely.
I completely and absol
Interesting idea, indeed. Novice users won't probably know much about
the packages being upgraded, anyway.
However, let me humbly disagree with you on one aspect: Synaptic is a
tool for installing packages. As an "advanced" user it would be too much
of a hassle to open it everytime I want to insta
Keep update-manager simple and instead simplify it
further:http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/9338/
Advanced users can use Synaptic for information redarding version numbers and
what not.

a gconf key isn't the best thing to do as you would, everytime you have
to install ubuntu in the same/other machine, need to remember or search
the internet for the key that needs to be changed. IMHO it should be put
back anyway or enabled/disabled with a graphical
button/checkbox/whatever somewere
THANK YOU!! That would do just fine!!
I'll be going to Ibex testing as soon as the repos open & would really like to
add your PPA to my list. Again, many thanks!!
Cheers!!

Thanks for the additional feedback.
I agree with you that we should have a way to enable the version
information again. I will provide you with a update-manager build after
the release (sorry, I just don't have time before) in my PPA that
enables them again and then add a gconf key in the next ubu

This is a regression. PPA and third party archives don't usually keep a
changelog. Changelogs also don't show from which version you're upgrading from.
Therefore, information isn't redundant, or update-manager wouldn't have been
patched to include version changes back in breezy/dapper.

Part of the original changelog (version 1:0.87):

Like many others here I have also the opinion that this "from $version
to $version"

I second this. The version information absolutely needs to be there. You
should not make that choice for me, let me choose that my self if I
don't want to know what is going on.

The resaon given in the changelog isn't even valid as the version numbers are
not duplicated information. If a package does not provide a changelog there is
no way to seem them.
It's also comfortable to browse through the list of updates whether there are
any major version upgrades.
