--status-pipe implemented(not a cmdline option tho yet)
Below is a short apt run. There are 2 types of status info being
displayed(currently on stderr). I display the actual status field, and also
track running maintainer scripts. It should be pretty self explanatory to
figure out.
My question to the apt developers, is this enough info for apt to make better
descisions?
The following VERY short patch does the status: lines. The maintainer script
patch is a little more complicated, and may not even be needed, so isn't
included here.
