Exactly.
Mine is the same idea as pdumpfs which is the power behind
snapshot.debian.net.
I used a simple implimentation with BASH instead of pdumpfs's generic Ruby
one. I do not know what haapens when apt is run by user when CRON is in
action or vice varsa.
I wish mine could have been as short and simple as yours.
