Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: apt

Using 10.04 LTS server, 64-bit

Current version of apt: 0.7.25.3ubuntu9.3

When performing an 'apt-get update', the complete repo is shown.
Example: 

  Hit http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com lucid-updates/restricted Packages
  Hit http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com lucid-updates/main Packages
  Hit http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com lucid-updates/restricted Sources
  Hit http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com lucid-updates/main Sources
  Hit http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com lucid-updates/multiverse Sources
  Hit http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com lucid-updates/universe Sources
  Hit http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com lucid-updates/universe Packages
  Hit http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com lucid-updates/multiverse Packages

Now, when upgrading the system with 'apt-get upgrade' it isn't possible to see 
where the upgrade package came from.
Example:

  Inst libc6 [2.11.1-0ubuntu7.2] (2.11.1-0ubuntu7.4 Ubuntu:10.04/lucid-
updates)

In this example it is not clear if the new package comes from either 
main.multiverse,universe etc.
This is ofcourse also valid for other packages.

If I simulate the upgrade with the -s option, I could build an update tree per 
repo, which is what I want.
Currently this is not possible without walking through all the packages.

Solution: print complete repo id when using apt-get upgrade.

Example:

    Inst libc6 [2.11.1-0ubuntu7.2] (2.11.1-0ubuntu7.4 Ubuntu:10.04
/lucid-updates/main)

instead of

     Inst libc6 [2.11.1-0ubuntu7.2] (2.11.1-0ubuntu7.4 Ubuntu:10.04
/lucid-updates)

I consider this a bug in apt-get.
