A quick amendment. I won't be able to check in the tool until Monday as the remote login seems to not be working, but you can still get an idea of what it does.

In working on this I discovered that there is not really a specification to compare versions for the new OPKG system for version numbers so we worked on one which I'd like to propose here. The documentation for it can be found on the wiki (http://svn.oscar.openclustergroup.org/trac/oscar/wiki/OPKGVersioning). The comparison scheme is based on the Debian way of comparing version numbers (it's actually mostly the same code). I'm checking in the comparison tool as well. I've done some testing on it, but it isn't exhaustive yet by any means. I still need to add a quick parser to separate the version number from the revision number.
