I admit I should have written a proper test suite for piuparts, but
since I failed to do it... as a rule (I don't remember if it's been done
already for this patch), it would be cool to test piuparts by running it
against a number of packages. If time is short, running it against a
thousand randomly selected packages would be a good start; checking that
the results don't look terribly different from before takes a bit of
time, of course. The piatti.debian.org / piuparts.cs.helsinki.fi machine
is available for that, it's reasonably fast.
