Thanks for working on the new script!  I had looked at it earlier but
realized (due to mapreri's nudging) that I hadn't followed up about it.

I think it's a good addition to devscripts, so definitely welcome it
being included.  I only had a couple small comments.

Is it intentional that the cache file is named bz rather than bz2?  I
know .bz is recognized by the relevant tools, but it seems .bz2 is the
more typical form.

README needs to be updated with information about the new script.  It
basically follows the same format as the long description in
debian/control.

Cheers,
