Need a way to figure out when there are updates available via apt for a Linux OS. There's no actual version number (there are many packages each with their own version number), so need to come up with something nice to display. Maybe:
When updates available (current and latest can't match):
Current: "Updateable"
Latest: "## updateable packages"
When up to date (current and latest should match):
Current & Latest: "Current"
(alternatively "Up to date" or "No updates"
