joey ea30cb70c6 * LSB package support. It can generate LSB packages (not guarenteed
fully conformant with the LSB), and it can take LSB packages and convert
     them into other formats. Unlike all the other conversions, lsb packages's
     dependancy (on lsb) and their package scripts are preserved in the
     generated packages (when allowed by the target package format). This means
     your distribution will need to have a package named 'lsb' for the result
     to be installable. (Debian will have one soon..)
   * Suggest rpm-lsb, which is the preferred rpm to build lsb packages with.
     Use it if it's present, plain old rpm otherwise.
