This sounds cool, though I must admit the involvement with someone's dns
admin will have to be a lot greater. You'd have to update this data any
time a package changed.

Would you be willing to come up with a spec on how you think apt/yum/
up2date/redcarpet/etc should access this data? I'm going to have to
admit being a bit intimidated by the complexities here.
