Yes indeed! And ledit.
I get:
Package Debian Ubuntu Total
hevea 526 1,483 2,009
ledit 822 800 1,622
bibtex2html 481 441 922
hlins 83 35 118

I'm just grepping the by_inst files and looking at the number of installs for
each package. Also for Ubuntu at:
http://popcon.ubuntu.com
What's the best way for me to automate this? I'd like to find all packages
that depend upon ocaml-base-nox and how many installs they have on Debian and
Ubuntu. Good for OCaml evangelism. :-)
