Attached is a patch to add an option that displays the old version of the package as well as size in column format for the upgrade operation. Another patch was submitted back in November for this, but it either got lost and buried in the list, or Dan just hated it :).
When enabled, this is what the upgrade information looks like:
Targets:
Pkg Name New Version Old Version Size
perl 5.10.0-2 5.8.8-9 15.37 MB cairo-perl 1.044-1 1.041-1 0.10 MB courier-authlib 0.60.2-2 0.60.2-1 0.17 MB dhcpcd 3.2.1-1 3.2.0-1 0.04 MB imagemagick 6.3.8.0-2 6.3.8.0-1 2.00 MB glib-perl 1.162-1 1.160-1 0.36 MB perl-event 1.09-3 1.09-2 0.09 MB perl-anyevent 2.8-6 2.8-5 0.02 MB perl-libintl-perl 1.16-3 1.16-2 1.11 MB perl-event-execflow 0.63-3 0.63-2 0.04 MB gtk2-perl 1.162-1 1.160-1 2.28 MB perl-gtk2-ex-formfactory 0.65-4 0.65-3 0.20 MB
This output looks cleaner to me than that of ShowSize, because it's indented. But I wonder - what will be if user enables both options? One of them should definetely take precedence. -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич)
