I'm getting

'libprotobuf-c-dev:amd64/vivid 1.0.2-1build1 uptodate'

also no lsb_release -a

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 15.04
Release:        15.04
Codename:       vivid


So, I move to 14.04 is on my office machine, I can run these cmds there and
see the results. But i should start with 'apt-show-versions
libprotobuf-c-dev' right? also I don't get anything when i do
'libprotobuf-c0 not installed (not available)'.

Thanks for help.
