I was doing updates using the Software Updater app on 14.04, and I decided to remove an undesired app from the command line.
After that I ran "apt-get upgrade" and noticed a set of packages that are not being advertised in the GUI app. I'm a bit suspicious as to the specific source of these package adverts.
1) How do I identify exactly which source is offering them?
2) And is there a specific reason why they aren't visible in Software Updater?
3) How can I compare the existing versions of these packages easily?
