You could actually create it with the new architecture by querying
apt-file, creating Package objects with the resulting package names,
collecting those Package objects into a PackageSet and then running the
remaining part of the query on that PackageSet.

I just had a look at apt-file.  Damn... everytime it parses at least 8Mb
of gzipped data... gosh :(  I was considering including apt-file
searches in Debtags (or at least in its todo-list), but I may like
something more efficient than that (only computing where and which are
the file lists needs some nontrivial parsing on sources.list and
apt-file.conf :( ).


Ciao,

Enrico
