Personally I think that your tool to automatically generate the updated
packages is great and very handy. On the other side, I'm not willing to
trust a package that has been generated automatically without any sort
of control to be installed on my system (and I think I'm not the only
one). The wrong thing IMHO is to automatically push the new package to
the repo without any real test and check ("it builds" is not an answer).
I'm not a TU, but I think your tools could be used to prepare the new
updated packages in a local pool, ready to be tested and checked and
then *manually* fetched to the repo only if everything is fine.
