Part of the original changelog (version 1:0.87):

>  * UpdateManager/UpdateManager.py:
>    - remove the "from $version to $version" from the main
>      list as this is duplicated information from the details tab

Like many others here I have also the opinion that this "from $version
to $version" information isn't redundant. If the changelog of the
updates isn't available, we have no Information about the new package
version. And the changelog doesn't show any information about the
currently installed package version.

I looked into the source code of the old update-manager version (gutsy)
and found the relevant lines in UpdateManager.py. Therefore I created a
diff that should revert these changes (note: I'm not a developer). Now I
can see version changes again ;).

It would be great to get feedback from Michael Vogt. Perhaps he is
willing to introduce this "version changes information" again.


** Attachment added: "Reintroduction of "from $version to $version" information 
in update dialog."
