In general, using XEmacs is the right way, because that will tell you
what the bug reporter has installed.  If you want to check what's
current, all of that information is in the package-index,

ftp://ftp.xemacs.org/pub/xemacs/packages/package-index.LATEST.gpg

a file of about 80kB, so probably not too expensive to return.  That's
just a LISP file containing an alist and some syntactic sugar, so you
can `load' it and extract only the package information you need with
any Emacsen.  You can also typically check out what was in the last
few releases by looking for the dated versions of package-index in the
same directory.

The package ChangeLog is available from ViewCVS at http://cvs.xemacs.org/.
