   Package Cache - Accessor code for the cache
   
   Please see doc/apt-pkg/cache.sgml for a more detailed description of 
   this format. Also be sure to keep that file up-to-date!!
   
   This is the general utility functions for cache managment. They provide
   a complete set of accessor functions for the cache. The cacheiterators
   header contains the STL-like iterators that can be used to easially
   navigate the cache as well as seemlessly dereference the mmap'd 
   indexes. Use these always.
   
   The main class provides for ways to get package indexes and some
   general lookup functions to start the iterators.
