BUILDING
========
Install libapt-pkg-dev
testing/ $ make
testing/ $ mkdir old cur out
testing/ $ cd testing
testing/testing/ $ perl Makefile.PL
testing/testing/ $ make
Add old and new packages files into old and cur, respectively.
testing/ $ ./checklib i386 alpha
Will generate some test stuff in out/
TODO
====
Need some way of actually updating archives.
Need some way of judging differences between Packages files.
(so I can see what hasn't been updated and work out why;
so I can check that Packages.gz matches dpkg-scanpackages output)
Need some way of automatically explaining why packages aren't upgraded.
(shouldn't be hard?)
BUGS
====
out/ directory must exist for checklib, or segfault
