 Ack; in fact the Emdebian repos are a mess, so I prefer getting a clear
 request on which ones should be used: there is Emdebian tools, Emdebian
 Crush and Emdebian Grip as 3 separate orthogonal archives.

 I did implement PPA support though, I do think it's important.

 I finished mirror-map support; take a look, let me know what you think.

 I wonder whether we need a command-line interface to set archive
 mirrors too, perhaps --mirror "debian-security
 http://mirror/debian-security/" or something like that.  Currently,
 only a single mirror for --suite mode is supported, or you have to use
 --mirror-map (works in both --profile and --suite modes).
