Title:
  apt-cache shows misleading dependency information

Status in apt package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: apt

  The dependency information output from apt-cache is misleading.
  Depends, Recommends, Suggests and even Conflicts are all lumped
  together as a dependency.  One example:

  $ apt-cache showpkg g-wrap
  Package: g-wrap
  Versions: 
  1.9.9-3 (/var/lib/apt/lists/Rie:9999_ubuntu_dists_hardy_universe_binary-i386_Packages)
   Description Language: 
                   File: /var/lib/apt/lists/Rie:9999_ubuntu_dists_hardy_universe_binary-i386_Packages
                    MD5: 90f3aa27bd657aa17d94a99352e03024

  
  Reverse Depends: 
    guile-gnome0-dev,g-wrap 1.9.9
    guile-g-wrap,g-wrap 1.9.9-1
  Dependencies: 
  1.9.9-3 - guile-1.8 (0 (null)) guile-library (2 0.1.1) indent (0 (null)) libgwrap-runtime-dev (2 1.9.9-3) libgwrapguile-dev (0 (null)) 
  Provides: 
  1.9.9-3 - 
  Reverse Provides: 

  (guile and guile-library are depends, indent and libgwrap-runtime-dev
  are a recommends while libgwrapguile-dev is a conflicts)
