The new apt is much more strict on the fields in status files, to get it to 
work I need to make a few minor changes to f-v-p, I spent lots of time working 
on apt 0.9.82 trying to figure out why girts weren't working and it turns out 
the parser was considering them invalid due to missing fields like arch and 
priority.  So I made a quick patch which is in my pull request and i'll attach 
it here as well.  I'd add it myself but I'm not sure which branch and if it'll 
affect anything else that uses f-v-p

the current output looks like

Package: 64bit-cpu
Status: install ok installed
Version: 0-1
description: [virtual package representing the 64bit capability of the CPU]

I'd like to change it to look like


Package: 64bit-cpu
Status: install ok installed
Priority: optional
Architecture: all
Version: 0-1
Maintainer: Fink Devel <fink-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>
Description: [virtual package representing the 64bit capability of the CPU]
 The presence of the 64bit-cpu package indicates that the CPU on which we
 are running is 64bit capable.
