Don't you just love how there's no "version" command in linux?  :)

Easy install from command line as root
wget http://programs.rcrnet.net/version/version-0.1-all.deb
dpkg -i version-0.1-all.deb

After all  these years, linux still lacks a "version" command.
This command makes it simple.

To find your ubuntu version:
version "distro"

Example:
version ubuntu
version debian

To find a package version:
version "packagename"

Example:
version postfix

To find kernel version and if you are running 32 or 64 bit
version kernel

dragonslayr,
  you can use the following command to get version numbers:
   apt-cache policy [package] -> to get the vrsion of any installed package
   uname -a                               -> version of running kernel
  cat /etc/issue                         -> ubuntu version
