Would you please tell me what kind of output you need (which order of  
pkgname & origin and which seperator between them), I want to provide  
an awk script to you which produces this based upon +CONTENTS. It  
should cut down some program invocations and a make call (IIR your  
patch correctly).

Bye,
Alexander.
