I wasn't at the BoF, but was opposing rather strongly afterwards since
I was not aware that libdpkg-dev is partially a fork and provides the
same functionality. (And I didn't want to loose the changelog parsing
functionality in aptitude.)
Since Guillem cleared up this and even provided a patch for aptitude
(which is applied and in testing for a week or two), I changed my
opinion on this topic completely.

Seconded. :-)
