it be better to add this check to /etc/init.d/rcS when it goes through the
/etc/rcS.d/S??* scripts (since the chkconfig parameter has the same name

Hi,
lynx -dump http://packages.debian.org/libdb2-util
might do what you want.
Or add woody to sources.list and parse the Packages files locally.
I think you'd also need to run the development APT at people.d.o/~jgg
to tag woody so it isn't an install candidate.

The fundamental problem we must solve is allowing the *user* to
securely choose which OS she wants to install. Whether that OS
follows thru and verifies all its parts is between the user and the
person or group who provided the OS (could be the user, herself, of

We need a "sta
