I use the parameters "-v" (verbose) and "-V" (show versions) when
using aptitude in comand-line mode. In the manpage of aptitude you can
find the following:
-V, --show-versions
Show which versions of packages will be installed.
This corresponds to the configuration option Aptitude::CmdLine::Show-
Versions.
-v, --verbose
Causes some commands (for instance, show) to display extra
information. This
may be supplied multiple times to get more and more information.
This corresponds to the configuration option
Aptitude::CmdLine::Verbose.
Hope that helps,
Best Regards,
Salvatore
