    Actually, if it's not too much work (and if you didn't sneak it
into the hamm version of dpkg/dpkg-deb without me noticing), I'd also
like to see a dpkg option to display the changelog of a downloaded
package, so you can know what to expect before a sudden upgrade.


    Somewhat unrelated question...  Does anyone know if I am likely to
break anything by spontaneously installing the hamm ld.so package on
my bo system?
