Subject: dpkg: please support ${source:Upstream-Version} in query
Date: Mon, 14 Nov 2016 16:36:10 +0000 (UTC)
Source: dpkg
Version: 1.18.14
Severity: normal

Hi, as said, I would appreciate being able to do something like this:
dpkg-query --show --showformat='${source:Upstream-Version}' cmake
to find the Upstream-Version.
Such variable is already documented in deb-substvars(5).

Is such a feature something feasible?

thanks,

Gianfranco

This has been implemented in 1.18.16, but due to a typo it didn't get
closed with the initial upload. I've corrected the changelog now.

Thanks,
