Bug#468123: Please bind pkgCache::DepType, pkgCache::CompType, and pkgCache::CompTypeDeb.
tag 468123 fixed-upstream
thanks
Tagging this as fixed-upstream, because the 'jak' branch does not
export the input values anymore and the requested functions are
therefore useless.
We export the strings directly in the Python extension and if you
need a translated dependency type, you can use 'DepType' attribute
of the Dependency object (see Version.DependsList).

It returns a dictionary like Version.depends_list_str as of revision 311
of the debian-experimental and jak branches.
Packages for i386 and amd64, as well as source are available from:
deb http://people.debian.org/~jak/debian/ experimental/
deb-src http://people.debian.org/~jak/debian/ experimental/

This won't be done exactly this way. Instead, we will only use untranslated
strings as the names of the Build-Depends field and similar are not translated
in apt.
