(Get the code!)
Surely we need a regression testing system that can pick up bugs like this?
Perhaps a script could install from a collection of packages and run each associated executable, expecting the program to remain running for a certain amount of time. Programs which require interaction should not ordinarily exit immediately, so you could detect if something has gone wrong.
Another way would be to get a list of /usr/lib/* from apt-file for Breezy and compare that to /usr/lib/* for Gutsy.
That's potentially a quick list of libraries that might have fallen off the bus. Of course, apt-file itself fell off the bus in Gutsy since there's no Contents.i386 file on the CDROM.
