Or rather, dpkg-shlibs.py as it is called now. It seems stable enough
to replace dpkg-shlibdeps.pl now so I changed its name.
Changes since the first version:
* don't hardcode errno values anymore
* pre-cache data so we only need to do one dpkg -S call for extra
speedup
* remove dlocate usage

It seems to me that this is the source of the misunderstanding.
A tab doesn't represent spaces. I

Doesn't dlotate work just like locate by caching data? If so, this could
result in incorrect dependancies if two library packages contained the
