apt-cache show <package> | grep ^Version:

You can also download apt-ucli.sh from my stuff and use it.

apt-ucli.sh find-versions <package>

To see what you have installed use dpkg or apt-ucli.sh.

dpkg -l <package>

apt-ucli.sh show-version <package>

I hope to add functionality that apt-ucli.sh has and feta doesn't have to
feta, so don't get too tied to apt-ucli.sh :).
