There is one "small" wish (actually I don't know wether it is a small or large one, considering the work already done in debcheck/rpmcheck) I have, which you might want to implement and/or forward to $Upstream: It would be quite nice if the tool had an option to do the following: Given the Packages file (or other compatible list of packages) on STDIN and a set of "seed" packages on the commandline, print out all the packages needed to fulfill the dependencies (if all dependencies can be fulfilled - error out if not). This would be of use on many occasions, most notably when you try to build a minimal repository which contains all needed packages for a given set of packages you want installed. In my case, it would help to build an automated installation CD for Debian with some customized and/or additional packages. Currently, when I add a new application, I have to manually check the dependencies. Would be extremely nice to find a way to automate this.
