That should be done using plugins written in Python and dropped into
Smart's "plugins" directory, althought it could be a little tricky to
make some parts to merge well with smart without modifying some code
elsewhere.

It does more. Python scripts are more powerful than Lua scripts. And
even if you want to maintain support for them, one could write a plugin
for it.

You could join the Smart mailing list and thake that discussion there.
We could check if it's possible to implement.

YOU is something completely different.

Just dealing with YaST2 sources for now, not YOU yet. For now you need
to add the updates repository in APT format. But I plan to add YOU
support in all of it's glory as soon as possible. :)

Check 'smart install --explain', that should tell you why those packages
are needed.

The important part of the crash is the end, and you pasted just the
initial part. :)
