Well, I think that apt-watch is specifically created to serve just this kind of purpose i.e.
debian:~/etc# apt-cache search apt-watch
apt-watch - Monitor apt sources for upgrades
And do install apt-listchanges i.e. a most utility to keep one posted of the latest changes in a package as well as apt-listbugs > your best friend before you embark on an 'apt-get upgrade ' run, especially for those who happened to be on Sid/Scud.
