Description Janet 2010-12-25 14:58:07 UTC 
Version:           1.0.2 (using KDE 4.5.90) 
OS:                Linux

What I really miss in muon is an overview in the package list of the installed version and available version like it is possible in synaptic. Is it possible to add those two in the list header (and maybe make the list header configurable so that the user can choose which columns are shown)? So that you can see it at one glance and so that you can sort by installed or available version? 

That way it would be possible to compare the versions of packages of one group/search term with one glance which for me is the main reason to use synaptic. Especially useful for validating that all KDE apps are installed with the current version.

By now you have to click twice to see the version infos for a package and there is no way to see it for more than one package at the same time.

Reproducible: Always

I agree. A version tab in the list header would be great. For installed packages it could display the current version number. For not installed and upgradable packages the available version number.

Agreed, except that IMO *both* the current version and the latest version should be displayed, not just one as Sel suggests. E.g. aptitude: http://www.algebraicthunk.net/~dburrows/projects/aptitude/doc/en/images/expand-thrice-snapshot.png

BTW, is #299760 a duplicate?
