write clients in several languages

desktop user to query for updates without entering a password
- Support for media changes during installation from DVD/CDROM
- Support for debconf (Debian's package configuration system)
- Support for attaching a terminal to the underlying dpkg call

This package contains the aptd script and all the data files required to run
the daemon. Moreover it contains the aptdcon script, which is a command
line client for aptdaemon. The API is not stable yet.
