New NBS report

Hello archive admins,

I wrote a better NBS report script (nbs-report in ubuntu-archive-tools
bzr), which I believe produces a much better report than the old "one
file per package" directory at
http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/NBS/.

It now shows all rdepends on a single page, groups the architectures,
and automatically detects closed subgraphs, i. e. sets of NBS packages
where all transitive reverse dependencies are NBS themselves.

It also adds a reverse map to show (non-NBS) packages which depend on
NBS packages, sorted by number of NBS dependencies, then by name.
(Thanks to Colin for the suggestion).

  http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/nbs.html

Please let me know if you have further ideas how to improve this.

I already updated the pointers on the ArchiveAdmin wiki page.

Thanks,

Martin
