The list command should show the installed version #2274

What problem are you trying to solve?

devbox list and devbox global list show the version that a package is pinned to but not the exact version that is installed. It is common for people to post the output of list for debugging purposes, but only seeing latest isn't super helpful there.

What solution would you like?

It would be great to expand the list command to include the package name, the pinned version, and the installed version. So instead of this:

* neovim@latest
* syncthing@latest

We could see something like this:

* neovim@latest - 0.10.1
* syncthing@latest - 1.27.12

The version information is available in devbox.lock.

Alternatives you've considered

Looking at devbox.lock every time I want to see the exact version installed.
