 * Build-Conflicts-Indep

BinaryPackageReleases:

 * Pre-depends
 * Recommends
 * Enhances
 * Breaks
 * Essential (only missing from index stanza)
 * Source (only missing from index stanza)

It will affect:

 * upload-system
 * UI
 * NoMoreAF

As elmo suggested we should compare results generated by a-f with the ones obtained from NMAF and check for inconsistences.

Kiko suggested a enhanced model that would allow use to support not only debian metadata but also other packaging formats:

The extention would consist of moving the metadata storage to another table and adopt a field-driven model:

 * {Source, Binary}PackageMetaData:
   * SPR/BPR -> FK
   * name -> text
   * content -> text

This way, the Content classes (SPR, BPR) could provide a cache and lookup facility allowing easy access to any metadata field, include those that we currently call 'extra-overrides'.

The old data migration seems to be trivial too.
