Hello,

I've realized that a version of the debtags library is available for
debian unstable. After downloading I've played around a little. I have
noticed that some of the things I wished were allready available which
made me happy :-)
Here are some things I wanted to mention:
      * As the DebtagsEnvironment::outputSystem() uses the
        UnfacetedRemover I can't use it because I rely on the packages
        to be tagged with the facets. Besides there are still a lot of
        packages tagged simply with a facet. Might it be possible to add
        an argument or another function to allow the same functionality
        without using the UnfacetedRemover? I really would like to use
        this function as it would remove the burden of offering my own
        readCollection() functions.
      * I really like the getState() function in PackageDB it frees me
        of looking where to get this information!
