wajig update
Thanks for all the comments I've received re my "wajig" script.
I've put the current version at http://velox.act.cmis.csiro.au/~gjw/wajig
This is a script that simply collects together some typical package
management operations into one place.
A sample iteration for me is:
# wajig update (to update the list of available pkgs)
# wajig new (to list new (to Debian) pkgs)
