Packages from stable:  apt-show-versions -a | grep uptodate\ stable
Packages from testing:  apt-show-versions -a | grep uptodate\ testing
Packages from unstable:  apt-show-versions -a | grep uptodate\ unstable

Packages which could/should be upgraded:
  apt-show-versions -u

Upgrade all upgradable packages across all versions (stable/testing/unstable):
  apt-get install `apt-show-versions -u -b`
