Public bug reported:

Wanting to see which updates were recently installed on my system, I
went to System: Administration: Synaptic Package Manager and did File:
History.  The History window proudly proclaims it displays a "History of
installed, upgraded and removed software packages".  I was flabbergasted
to see it did NOT include the various updates that the Update Manager
regularly inflicts upon my system.

The rules lawyers will argue that "updated" is not in the Synaptic
History job description.  Harrumph.  Since the Update manager offers not
History of its own, this is completely unacceptable.  How am I supposed
to get a list of recent changes to my system when something suddenly
breaks?
