   Description     : enhanced package installation

  apt-gentoo enhances the Debian package installation experience to make
  it fully competitive with newly-popular source-based distributions.

  As packages are installed, apt-gentoo automatically downloads their
  build logs from the buildd network. The logs are then slowly scrolled
  past on the user's terminal to simulate building the software on the
  local machine.

  apt-gentoo optionally, and by default, gives increased realism by
  spinning the CPU in a tight loop between build log lines, and writing
  large files to disk.

  An additional utility apt-gentoo-benchmark is included to tune the
  delay loops for your hardware by finding the length of time taken by
  typical compiler and linker runs. (On slow or low-memory hardware we
  recommend leaving these values at their defaults.)



  A preliminary package of apt-gentoo is available at
  http://www-jcsu.jesus.cam.ac.uk/~mma29/apt-gentoo/
