[pacman-dev] Introducing pacweb, another pyalpm demo

Hello,

I am currently working on another toy example use of pyalpm: beside
pycman, the command line utility that comes with pyalpm, I have now
pacweb, a browsable Web interface to pacman.

  http://projects.archlinux.org/users/remy/pacweb.git/

It is not suitable for public consumption, but offers an alternative
display of the pacman database. Intrepid users might run it as root,
to allow performing some actions (changing package install reasons,
add/remove individual packages), as well as wide opening seurity breaches
on their systems.

It is currently based on jinja (recently added to repos for Python 3)
for templating, and steals Archweb style for the current appearance.
I have also made a PKGBUILD available on the AUR.

The amount of actual Python source code is very small and should be
easily readable.
