It sounds cool but the main supported distrib is debian, maybe we could
modify the script to support this distrib. As far as I understand, you
can specify a command but it will be called with the packagename as an
argument (apt-get install MIME::Lite) which won't work. Maybe we could
improve the existing hash : {component} -> {module} -> {distrib} ->
{package name (or command)}...
