Package: libapt-pkg-dev Version: 0.5.4 Severity: wishlist As you probably know, tasks are now represented by Task: headers in Packages. This information is obviously useful for package management frontends; however, I can't see any obvious way to extract it without parsing the Packages file myself. Would it be possible to add this functionality? (either by adding specific support for Task:, or by adding a generic "look up this package control tag for me" routine)
