Is there a way to see the upgrade history with date with some program e.g. apt? I want to know when exactly I upgraded security relevant packages the last time and the time before that... Thanks a lot! Edit: My bad. Forgot to mention that I am using Crunchbang waldorf. Sorry.

No Crunchbang. Sorry, forgot to write that – aldorado Apr 20 '14 at 10:37

Similar - http://unix.stackexchange.com/q/12578/4671. These kinds of questions have been asked before, and some of them should probably be closed as dupes. – Faheem Mitha Apr 20 '14 at 11:46

The apt history is usually kept in /var/log/apt. You should be able to view the most recent log with:
less /var/log/apt/history.log
Older log files may be compressed, so you may need:
zless /var/log/apt/history.log.1.gz
Also see the term.log files for the output that was on the terminal.
