Hi,

Looking for some guidance now. I've had a fairly long look at this and 
struggling to work out the difference between a broken cache being 
re-built and a cache that has been changed by another process.
What I'm getting is that a broken cache that requires rebuilding is 
caused by broken depends whereas a cache changed by another process 
could be an installation or update event in another package manager 
(i.e. adding medibuntu repositories and installing 
app-install-data-medibuntu).
However, looking at the code, it appears the behaviour is the same. The 
app identifies the need to rebuild the database and starts doing it.

So my issue (assuming the above is correct) is how to identify which of 
these events caused the rebuild to begin.

Any ideas?

thanks
Aaron
