Apt policy output changed between Ubuntu 19.10 and 20.04
I used command 'apt policy' to check package version.
apt policy package-name with a generic name worked well in Ubuntu 19.10 with apt 3.34.0-1ubuntu1
while generic name is ignored in Ubuntu 20.04 with apt 3.35.91-0ubuntu1
'apt-cache policy' works as usual in 19.10 and 20.04
thanks for your attention
