I'd like to get more information than what is currently available.
I suspect that this will require a schema change and thus a full
re-index of the package tree.

The current database table presented at www/packages stores:

$software
$pkgname
$desc
$version
$vendorurl
$email
$maintlogin
$repourl

The things that I'm missing are $vendorurl and $repourl.  Is it
possible to extend pkgdb such that this is collected?  It would save
having to fetch each updated package, unroll it and extract the info
from it directly.  As the pkgdb rest calls will already be expensive,
I'd like to avoid this additional overhead if possible.

What do you think?

Thanks
-Ben
