Hmmmm. I know you're opposed to screen-scraping, but there ought to be some
way to ask to show full names and versions. This'd be especially important
in the case of long package names like selinux-policy-targeted and
selinux-policy-targeted-sources (or something even longer) -- the truncation
could actually cut off the part that distinguishes which package is getting
installed.
