i don't have much to add on this, but i'd like to point out that there are folks who are probably in principle nervous about moving from a simple (albeit slow), but reliable file-based system to *anything*, and i think that it's pretty justified. my suggestion would be that at least initially a db-based system like this should be used as a cache, which could be manually or even automatically regenerated in the case of problems. so... no comments from anyone on the dpkg team? maybe i should cross-post this to -devel to see what the folks in the peanut gallery have to say :) sean
