Describe the enhancement requested

https://github.com/apache/arrow/blob/main/dev/tasks/linux-packages/apache-arrow/debian/control.in uses auto generated dependency information as much as possible.

In general, it works well. But if we want to install the specified version such as libarrow-glib-dev=20.0.0-1, the auto generated dependency information isn't enough. Because the auto generated dependency information don't have the specific version. We need to specify the specific version to all related packages such as:

apt install \
  libarrow-glib-dev=20.0.0-1 \
  libarrow-acero-dev=20.0.0-1 \
  libparquet-dev=20.0.0-1 \
  gir1.2-arrow-1.0=20.0.0-1 \
  libparquet-dev=20.0.0-1 \
  libarrow-dev=20.0.0-1

If we have more strict dependency information (package name + the specific version), we don't need to specify the specific version for all related packages such as:

apt install libarrow-glib-dev=20.0.0-1
