I have a half > proposal somewhere, maybe I'll dig it out.. Personally, I would be happy if dpkg became more modular and used seperate libraries for the database and the packaging-related things. And make a seperate tool to query the database, I don't see any specific reason why a package-installation/removal/etc. tool should also be used to do that. Then again, I'm not doing any coding on dpkg so it's not my call :) Wichert. BTW: you seem to have a tab in your signature, which makes it look weird here since I use a tabstop of 4.
