I don't want a tuple of lists of tuples, that's just too complicated. I meant just one list of tuples.

Actually thinking a bit more about this, a dictionary makes more sense: the keys are the package names and the values are tuples (installed_version, latest_version).

And I certainly want the output format to be the same for local=True and local=False.

I also propose to make this a separate function package_versions() to avoid the many if version branches you will need. And then implement the old _package_lists_from_sage_output() as a very short function using this new package_versions() function.

    1 Currently, the function `_package_lists_from_sage_output` only gives the latest available version of a package, not the version which is installed. I propose to actually return a list of triples
