Nevermind, i'll be switching back to apt-move-3.0 with it's warts and
all because unfortunately your rewrite resulted in a far too different
program. The current apt-move-4.x merge every package regardless of
it's origin (potato/woody) in one monolithic tree instead of taking
care of and separating packages bettween various dist versions.
This is pretty useless for me because i'd rather prefer the program to
maintain separate stripped down mirrors of both potato and woody
without any further attention on my behalf. :-(
This is really a pity, because your approach to managing the packages
are so much faster than the previous one...
Thank you, P. *8^)
