Don't redirect errors to /dev/null and don't return true(1)
unconditionally. Instead, don't check for the existence of index.theme.
This will allow us to catch errors that may be happening because of a
missing dependency in the chain.
Some hidden issues may appear, in which case please contact me.

- don't ask the database about existing pathkeys, it's simpler to have
our hash.
- in dependencies, don't like for non normalized pathkeys
- add CANONICAL column, and fill it.
tinycdb is a small, fast and reliable utility and subroutine library for
creating and reading constant databases. The database structure is tuned
for fast reading.
PkgPath.
This implies restructuring the database code, and the start of a
better separation between variables handling, and actual insertion
in the database.
bump version to 2.0: this changes the paths that actually get recorded,
and pkglocatedb will need to be aware of that.
OpenSSL rather than GnuTLS. Permit packages to be distributed. Bump shared
library versions to make sure they get updated.
As researched by jasper@, the GPL has a special exception when something
depends on software provided with the base OS, so it *is* ok for us to
distribute this.
This is preferred over using GnuTLS because GnuTLS pulls in a pthread
dependency; pthread overrides libc functions, so it is necessary
that a program using this is itself linked with pthread, causing a
problem if you want to use the FreeTDS library to connect to servers
using encryption from programs which aren't themselves linked with
pthread (e.g. /usr/sbin/httpd with mod_php, or perl with DBD::Sybase).
