Hmmm. This has been discussed ages ago, but I guess nobody has had the
time or the inclination to get things working. To be honest, I'm not
convinced that Richard's old scripts to look through jigdo files is
the best approach. We've been generating gzipped list files to go with
all the ISO images for quite a while now, and simply using those would
probably be better I think. I'm looking into it now.
