This clarifies some things to me, but ( :-) ) it is confusing, since in case the package vanishes from any repository the candidate is shown as "<none>" (or "<keiner>" in german), indicating there is no package with this name available any more -- thus it would be more convenient and logical to have the candidate be the one which has the highest available version available in the repositories, not the one which is installed.
