I wish you luck :) If you *really* want to mess with apt internals I do have
ideas how it could be done (some of which I've tried but got tangled in the
implementation details and dropped due to lack of time and interest). But
really I think time would be better spent improving yum/smartpm to have the
equivalent of build-dep, source and such operations.
And make Smart work on older versions of python and with older rpmlib
versions, at least RHEL3. RHN support is also on my wishlist.
