It is a very hard job and there are other solutions to consider.
In the context of this year GSoC of Leo Cavaille, we are working on
debile to provide such features.

While the installation is not trivial (even if we are working on the
packaging of the tools), it is providing what you need
and we are open to collaboration and contribution.

Besides debile, there are other solutions like:
* http://julien.danjou.info/projects/rebuildd
* https://launchpad.net/launchpad

Anyway, please don't reinvent the wheel.
