There was some reason for it.. Probably along the lines of it being poorly
documented/too complicated/missing some API/overkill for what was needed.
I don't recall exactly.
Worrying about the db files is really only important for ftp-master.d.o,
because it has about 3.4G worth of db files..
Donno if you have this already, but I put a smaller one of the .db files
from ftp-master at:
http://gluck.debian.org/~jgg/packages-debian-installer-hurd-i386.db
I guess worse comes to worse it will just require spending some vast
amount of time to regen them..
