DetailsI've thrown together a script that can update (insert and update) and remove packages from dbs without rebuilding the entire thing. I'm sure there are things that could make it better, but that's beside the point.
Right now it uses copies of the gen_md5checksums and db_write_entry functions from gensync. This means that when gensync changes the db format, updatesync won't build the same db entries.
