    No, there is no current mechanism or tool to notify you of specific package changes/updates in Ubuntu.

You can setup special software on your machine or in your browser.





  • Use SiteDelta Watch addon in Firefox. It scans page or its region for changes and show notification if interesting area of page was changed. You need to do the following:




    1. install this addon from addons.mozilla.org

    2. open needed page https://packages.ubuntu.com/source/bionic/nss-pam-ldapd in Firefox


    3. click SiteDelta Watch button on Firefox toolbar and click Monitor



      monitor changes




    4. Then click on down arrow to open right sidebar



      open sidebar




    5. Click Add new and select paragraph with version number



      select region



    6. That is all, SiteDelta Watch will inform you on page change.





  • Other method is to set up local python watcher - urlwatch:





    1. Install it



      sudo apt install python3-pip python3-keyring
      pip3 install urlwatch --user
      pip3 uninstall keyring



    2. Set it up according to recommendations from official GitHub page - create file ~/.config/urlwatch/urls.yaml with contents:



      name: "APT package watch"
      url: "https://packages.ubuntu.com/source/bionic/nss-pam-ldapd"
      filter:
      - xpath: '//*[@id="content"]/h1'
      - html2text: re


    3. Run urlwatch first time manually and create crontab job for it. SMTP notifying is supported too.





Personally I use both - SiteDelta and URLWatch.
