Sure. I did this to make the main loop more readable, but for merging
it might be better not to indent it at first. I think that
the main loop is too large anyway and should be refactored to only call
a few other functions.
BTW: I started a wiki page describing debpool at http://wiki.debian.org/debpool
some time ago.

Simply wanted to wait for the etch release before injecting it into
the perl packages svn repository ;)

I am still running a 2.4 kernel on my server, so it would be good to
have an alternative which does not require a 2.6 kernel.

You are right. It was a fast hack mainly to make sure that
debpool *starts* after reboot :)

Did you already think about the further proceeding? Shall we register
a debpool2, debpool-ng or whatsoever project on alioth?
