Bug#275379: apt-get: please support "satisfy"

[Andreas Barth <aba@not.so.argh.org>]

> Er, what is this patch supposed to do?

| apt-get satisfy debhelper (>= 4.1.0) glibc sed
ensures that these packages are installed afterwards.

> From reading the patch, the commands, and the variable names, it seems to do
> the exact same thing as build-dep.
+   string dependencylist;                                                                                                                                        
+   for (const char **I = CmdL.FileList + 1; *I != 0; I++)                                                                                                        
+       dependencylist += ((string) *I + (string) " ");                                                                                                           
This create a binary string as dependency list that is just parsed as
apt-get build-dep - just that the build-dependencies are not got out of
the source package, but from the command line.



Cheers,
Andi
