Given a package, let's say 'cdbs', I would like to know all packages
that build depend on it.

Currently I use this commandline to do that:
grep-dctrl -FBuild-Depends cdbs -sPackage -n \
/var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.de.debian.org_debian_dists_sid_main_source_Sources

This obviously sucks. wajig could provide a better interface for this,
at least in my eyes, common task.

Flo
