Summary:                    Debian's update-alternatives
Description: 
This patch adds a trimmed-down implementation of Debian's
update-alternatives utility for managing symbolic links determining
default commands (e.g., it's used to manage /usr/bin/editor on Debian
systems).

Supported features:
  --install, --remove, --set, and --auto options.

Additional features:
  --destdir or the DESTDIR environment variable can be used to set
  destination directory for created files.  Useful for building a
target's
  filesystem on a host system.

Some missing features:
  Interactive configuration (use --set instead).
  Support for slave links.
