some questions on apt for a widget
I'm making a small superkaramba widget that will tell me when there are upgrades ready for download. I was able to use apt-show-version -u to give me the number of packages, but I was wondering if there was a way to check if there is a dist-upgrade available. I've search around with google and found nothing.
Also as a side note with it, was wondering if you know how, if it would be able to work with other Debian distros Ubuntu, Progeny, etc or with apt-rpm. Thanks in advance.
