Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: synaptic

Unbuntu version 7.10
Synaptic 0.60ubuntu5

I didn't understand the meaning of (upstream) in the context of "upgradable 
(upstream)".
I found no expanation of this term in Synaptic help.

It is an ambiguous and unneeded qualifier. Unless there is an
alternative form of "upgradable" such as (downstream) or (yellow-brick-
road), why not simply drop the reference?
