I'm trying to figure out how to use apt-listchanges.

I want to see a list of changes *before* the packages are upgraded.
According to the documentation, apt-listchanges should do just that.

I ran `dpkg-reconfigure apt-listchanges` but I didn't see the question
that asks "Should apt-listchanges be automatically run by apt?".

>From the apt-listchanges man-page I read: "--apt   Read  filenames  from
a specially-formatted pipeline..."

That makes it sound like this should work:
  `apt-get upgrade | apt-listchanges --apt`

That command gives the following error:
Wrong or missing VERSION from apt pipeline
(is Dpkg::Tools::Options::/usr/bin/apt-listchanges::Version set to 2?)

`apt-config dump` shows that it is set to version 2.

I'd appreciate it if someone could enlighten me on this.
