The implementation I wrote for debbugs is a fallback for when libapt-pkg-perl isn't around; I think any language that can use a library would be best off using it, with code that implements the C verison of the dpkg comparison exactly as a fallback. We probably do need a libdpkg at some point in time to get rid of this kind of problem. Don Armstrong -- Tell me something interesting about yourself.
