Hmm... seems to work ok, but for some reason openssl package is shows
duplicates for me, see
http://laiskiainen.org/tmp/Screenshot-Synaptic.png
Oh well, apt-cache showpkg lists those duplicates as well, maybe the
list files or the cache are somewhat screwed up, this ought to show up
as a single entry normally I think:

address@hidden pmatilai]$ apt-cache showpkg openssl
...
Versions:

As for the interface itself: I wonder should the versions be presented
as an option menu (or radio buttons) instead of separate big buttons,
and maybe having the possible currently installed version (visibly)
selected in however the versions are presented would make it a bit
clearer?
