About ben

From Debian's package description

This is a collection of useful tools that Debian maintainers can use to make their packaging work easier. They all work with regular Debian package list files, and should be useful for Debian derivatives as well. This package ships a single executable, "ben", with the following subcommands:

  • download: download a set of package list files from a mirror
  • monitor: monitor the status of a set of packages across several architectures (useful for transitions)
  • query: query packages using their metadata (similar to grep-dctrl, but uses a dedicated query language)
  • tracker: frontend to multiple monitors

From Debian's description of the ben package, under that package's license.
