I was in FOSDEM last week-end and I have seen Enrico's talk about apt-xapian-index [1]. This package can feed a Xapian database from various sources in an extensible way. Debtags are already implemented as such source, package descriptions are another. I wonder if by creating another apt-xapian-source from wnpp would not solve the problem you are mentioning in an easier and better way. :) [1] http://packages.debian.org/apt-xapian-index Cheers, -- Jérémy Bobbio .''`.
