apt cache policy - how to show only candidate
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
Is there a way to tell apt-cache policy to show only candidate (instead of all available versions). Otherwise, a nasty parsing is needed, and I would like to refrain from that.
Example:
$ apt-cache policy foo
foo:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 1.2-54
Version table:
1.2-54 500 # <---------------- Show only this one

1.2-53 500
