check-pkg-list

#!/bin/sh
# script based on initial implementation
# by Vitaly Gusach (http://gusach.org.ua)
#
# purpose: warn on those entries in given packagelists(s)
# which are definitely absent; the build might still bail out
# but at least 80% of failures can be predicted early now
#
# usage: check-pkg-list [-n pkgnames] [--aptbox $PATH/to/aptbox] pkglist ...
# (pkgnames file should contain `apt-cache pkgnames`)
# NB: -n pkgnames MUST go first, if given
