I have some scripts based on Ralf Treinen's work to analyze the Contents
files for potential conflicts and DOSE for theoretical co-installability
checks. Then I use piuparts to do the actual test. Since this needs
"random" combinations of packages, these problems usually do not show up
during regular piuparts tests.
These tests are run irregularily by both Ralf (not using piuparts) and
me (with piuparts, also doing cross-distro tests).

Not really. We will see what the future brings.
