[Tool] kio-apt - Integration in den Konqueror

If you're a Debian user, and you don't like much the graphical tools like aptitude or dselect, then it's likely you use apt-cache a lot. And you know how it can be painful to search for a package through many MANY "apt-cache search foo" and "apt-cache show bar" lines

The apt ioslave gives the ability to use apt-cache functionalities, as well as dpkg -S (searches the package containing a file) and dpkg -L (list the files in a package) - and the related functions in rpm - into Konqueror, and provides hypertext which makes browsing all this stuff easier :

* apt:/search?search expression
* apt:/show?package
* apt:/policy?package
* apt:/list?package
* apt:/fsearch?package

All URLs that don't match the above formats, including apt:/, show a page with a HTML query form. The same query form is showed at the bottom of every page generated by the ioslave. It shows also a form for accessing packages.debian.org (if dpkg is used) or rpmfind.net (for apt-rpm users).
