With the new release of apt, I will migrate apt-file to make apt
download the Contents files for it.  Among other things, it means that
apt-file will *not* be parsing the sources.list file.

Locating the Contents will should thereafter be a matter of using
"apt-get indextargets" with some options.  I plan to make apt-file scan
any "^Created-By: Contents.*$" files by default (if you want to emulate
apt-file's behaviour in that regard in dh-make-perl).

Thanks,
~Niels
