Usando apt upgrade y apt dist-upgrade es bastante confuso ya que la salida generalmente se parece a esto. ¿Existe alguna opción o posibilidad de hacer que la salida sea más legible?

A partir de ahí tengo que decidir si es seguro actualizar o no. La lista de paquetes es simplemente fea y confusa. Me gustaría tener una mejor visión general de lo que se actualizará.
Por ejemplo, yum (de CentOS) brinda una vista mucho más limpia al actualizar. Uno puede ver fácilmente qué paquetes se actualizarán, a qué versión (por ejemplo, si se trata de un salto de versión pequeño o mayor) y también qué tan grande es el paquete para descargar.
$ sudo yum update
