actually, I've done that. It's a quick and dirty hack, uncommented and without
any guarantees, but it seems to have worked for me at some point in time ;-),
so feel free to try it if you like (and please tell me if something doesn't
work). Reads 'dpkg --get-selections' type output from stdin and writes to
stdout (including package count lines, so you'll have to delete those ;-).
I just saw that I write a different format to stdout (only one package per
line, without the 'install' required on stdin).

Regards,
Holger
