retitle 439938 packagesearch crashes when package database changes (e.g. 
installed state, package list,..)
forcemerge 439938 441841 455579
block 439938 by 442841
thanks

Most likely all merged bugs are caused by the fact, that the apt-package
database changes while packagesearch is running. This can be caused e.g.
by installation of packages or an "apt-get/aptitude update".
Packagesearch currently does not handle this gracefully and segfaults.

A fix will need to detect changes in the apt-database and reload it
whenever it is changed (see
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=442841 for a possible
approach to get this done).
